will io_stat node work for you?
I'll submit a formal patch later today. when you have time, can you
take a look at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=146217628030970 ?
I think we can fold this one into 0002. it will make 0002 slightly
bigger, but there nothing complicated in there, just cleanup.

Subject: [PATCH] zram: export the number of re-compressions

Make the number of re-compressions visible via the io_stat node,
so we will be able to track down any issues caused by per-cpu
compression streams.
