Subject[PATCH 2/2] zram: idle memory tracking
Date
zRam as swap is useful for small memory device. However, swap means
those pages on zram are mostly cold pages due to VM's LRU algorithm.
Especially, once init data for application are touched for launching,
they tend to be not accessed any more and finally swapped out.
zRAM can store such cold pages as compressed form but it's pointless
to keep in memory. Better idea is app developers free them directly
rather than remaining them on heap.

This patch tell us last accesss time of each block of zram via
"cat /sys/kernel/debug/zram/zram0/access_time".

The output is as follows,

276 1250
277 1800
.. ..
.. ..

First column is zram's block index and second one represents number
of seconds elapsed since the block was last accessed.
So above example means the 276th block is accessed 1250 second ago
and 277th block is accessed 1800 second ago.

Admin can leverage this information to catch cold pages of process
with *pagemap* once part of heaps are swapped out.
