Okay, Then, we should explain it to Greg.

While Jiang was fixing a BUG A with [1], [1] made another BUG B.
So, Sergey fixed BUG B with [2]. But unfortunately, [1] was in stable
now but [2] wasn't so [2] should go to the stable to fix BUG B.

[1] 12a7ad3b8, zram: avoid access beyond the zram device
[2] 75c7caf5a, zram: allow request end to coincide with disksize
