Re: [PATCH 3/3] zram: add mem_used_max via sysfs

[David Horner]

The introduction of a reset can cause the stale zero value to be
retained in the show.
Instead reset to current value.

perhaps these are local functions, but wouldn't the zs_ prefix still
be appropriate?

           zram->max_used_bytes = zs_get_total_size_bytes(meta->mem_pool);

           (where meta is set up as below  (beyond my skill level at
the moment)).

if these are atomic operations, why the (read and write) locks?
