Title:
zram module not found in 4.4/4.15 KVM kernel

Bug description:
== Justification ==
In the Xenial / Bionic KVM kernel, the CONFIG_ZRAM was not set, it's
impossible for users to use zram module on it. And the ubuntu_zram_smoke_test
regression test is failing due to the missing module.
== Test ==
Before enabling CONFIG_ZRAM and the related configs, the zram module cannot
be found.
After that, the zram module can be inserted and pass the
ubuntu_zram_smoke_test.
Test kernels could be found here:
http://people.canonical.com/~phlin/kernel/lp-1766823-zram/
== Fix ==
[bionic/linux-kvm][xenial/linux-kvm][SRU][PATCH] UBUNTU: [Config]: enable
CONFIG_ZRAM
== Regression Potential ==
Minimal.
No code changes, just a config changes without disabling any other configs.
------
The ubuntu_zram_smoke_test will fail due to the lack of the zram
module.
