Hello Joonsoo,

thanks for taking a look and for bringing this question up.
so I kinda wanted to propose union of `ulong handle' with `uint element'
and switching to memset(), but I couldn't figure out if that change would
break detection of some patterns.

 /* Allocated for each disk page */
 struct zram_table_entry {
-       unsigned long handle;
+       union {
+               unsigned long handle;
+               unsigned int element;
+       };
        unsigned long value;
 };

        -ss
