I'm sorry, but that needs benchmarks in order to be justified.

zram->table has nothing to do with zsmalloc pool. zram->table is a
fixed size (it depends on block device size) array that maps block
index to zsmalloc handle. It's allocated once, when the device is
initialized. Compressed pages are not stored there, zsmalloc pool
is a separate thing.
