All size classes beyond this size can be collapsed with PAGE_SIZE size class. This can significantly reduce number of size classes created but I think changes needed to do this would be more involved, so perhaps, should be done in another patch. Can you please resend part of this series (patch 1 to patch 4) which deals just with zsmalloc separately? I haven't yet looked into zswap itself so would help with zsmalloc bits are separated out.
