It seems 8 is too small to me by default. How about 256?
Furthemore, I think it would be worth to have in Kconfig.

config ZRAM_DEV_MAX_COUNT
	int "Number of zram devices to be created"
	depends on ZRAM
	default 256
	help
	   blah blah

I am not sure the overriding is a good idea.
Just leave it but just return error if user wanted to pre-create
exceeding max size in configuration.

Thanks.
