If we have two enums, then we need more lines
enum fullness {
ZS_INUSE_RATIO_0
...
ZS_INUSE_RATIO_100
}
enum stats {
INUSE_RATIO_0
...
INUSE_RATIO_100
// the rest of stats
}
and then we use int:4 fullness value to access stats.

For per inuse ratio zs_stats_size_show() we need to access stats
individually:
inuse10, inuse20, inuse30, ... inuse99
