Good catch.
Just out of curiosity.

Did you catch it by code review or real workload?

How abouting moving failed_reads/writes in zram_bvec_rw?

int zram_bvec_rw(..)
{
if (rw == READ) {
atomic64_inc(num_reads);
ret = zram_bvec_read(xxx);
} else {
atomic64_inc(&num_writes);
ret = zram_bvec_write(xxx);
}

if (unlikely(ret)) {
if (rw == READ)
atomic64_inc(failed_reads);
else
atomic64_inc(failed_writes);
}
}
