Hi Alex, thanks for your effort in pushing this forward!

maybe Indirected -> Indirectly?

for understanding, I think it'd be better to replace _zp_pad_1 with movable ops,
because mops reuses this 'mapping' field.

There was a discussion with Yosry on including memcg_data on zpdesc
even if it's not used at the moment.

Maybe you can look at:

the comment for PG_owner_priv_1 can safely be removed as it's not used
after commit a41ec880aa7b ("zsmalloc: move huge compressed obj from
page to zspage")

FYI this line seems to conflict with
bcc6116e39f512 ("mm/zsmalloc: move record_obj() into obj_malloc()")
on mm-unstable.
