Hello,

well, imho current zram stats are a bit meaningless and misleading. some data
simply makes a little sense, some data is not visible to end user at all, etc. my
plan was to revisit it before 3.14 merge window (which is also the end of promotion,
I guess). after 3.14 merge window we will not be able to change this easily.

I was going to publish stats rework patch today. It removes code duplication
and re-organizes end user visible stats. so here it is (w/o the proper commit
message)

num_reads
num_writes
pages_stored
invalid_io
notify_free
pages_zero
compressed_size
memory_used
