and it seems that after 3/3 (v2) we also lost GFP_ZERO for private
allocation. kzalloc->kmalloc, and no explicit __GFP_ZERO for __vmalloc().

so lz*_create() should look like

---

static void *lzo_create(gfp_t flags)
{
        void *ret;

        ret = kzalloc(LZO1X_MEM_COMPRESS, flags);
        if (!ret)
                ret = __vmalloc(LZO1X_MEM_COMPRESS,
                                flags | __GFP_ZERO | __GFP_HIGHMEM,
                                PAGE_KERNEL);
        return ret;
}

I have a patchset with my nitpicks addressed and fix-ups for missing gfps.
Do you mind me to send it out?
