commit be48c412f6ebf38849213c19547bc6d5b692b5e5 upstream.
Patch series "zram: fix backing device setup issue", v2.
This series fixes two bugs of backing device setting:
- ZRAM should reject using a zero sized (or the uninitialized ZRAM
device itself) as the backing device.
- Fix backing device leaking when removing a uninitialized ZRAM
device.
This patch (of 2):
Setting a zero sized block device as backing device is pointless, and one
can easily create a recursive loop by setting the uninitialized ZRAM
device itself as its own backing device by (zram0 is uninitialized):
echo /dev/zram0 > /sys/block/zram0/backing_dev
It's definitely a wrong config, and the module will pin itself, kernel
should refuse doing so in the first place.
By refusing to use zero sized device we avoided misuse cases including
this one above.

the previous definitions as well as the creation of this is locked behind CONFIG_ZRAM_LRU_WRITEBACK as well

Some architectures, such as arm, have implemented optimized copy_page for
full page copying.
Replace the full page memcpy with copy_page to take advantage of the
optimization.
