Sorry, I mistook the order. Please cherry-pick from 3.2.x as following order:

41247561dc21 zram: Fix deadlock bug in partial read/write
fd162a76f160 zram: avoid invalid memory access in zram_exit()
29c303b89a1b zram: destroy all devices on error recovery path in zram_init()
624d1705fa1d zram: avoid access beyond the zram device
e1c3e37d2c1d zram: protect sysfs handler from invalid memory access
498a727b33ee zram: allow request end to coincide with disksize
dccfb68c2630 Staging: zram: Fix access of NULL pointer
e06c33874253 Staging: zram: Fix memory leak by refcount mismatch

Thanks,
