    Add support for enabling zram in the kernel.
    
    The zram module creates RAM-based block devices named /dev/zram<id> (<id>
    = 0, 1, ...). Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in
    memory itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides
    good amounts of memory savings. Some of the use cases include /tmp storage,
    use as swap disks, various caches under /var and maybe many more.
    
    Different compression algorithms can be selected which give trade-offs between
    speed and compression.
