Thanks for trying an alternative fix! A crash stops yes, however this
also ends up leaving the driver in an unrecoverable state after a few
tries. Ie, you CTRL-C the scripts and try again over and over again and
the driver ends up in a situation where it just says:

zram: Can't change algorithm for initialized device

And the zram module can't be removed at that point.
