From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit db5d711e2db776f18219b033e5dc4fb7e4264dd7 upstream. zram_meta_alloc could fail so caller should check it. Otherwise, your system will hang.
