If no particular device_id was requested (passed -1 to zram_add()) during new
zram
device creation, generate one automatically and return it back. So,
schematically,
device creation can be done as:
dev_id = ioctl ZRAM_CTL_ADD -1
# dev_id == 1 or error code
init device zram1
dev_id = ioctl ZRAM_CTL_ADD -1
# dev_id == 2 or error code
init device zram2
