+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The notify_free file is read-only. Depending on device usage
+ scenario it may account a) the number of pages freed because
+ of swap slot free notifications or b) the number of pages freed
+ because of REQ_DISCARD requests sent by bio. The former ones
+ are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot is freed, which
+ implies that this disk is being used as a swap disk. The latter
+ ones are sent by filesystem mounted with discard option,
+ whenever some data blocks are getting discarded.
+ Now accessible via zram<id>/io_stat node.

+Description:
+ The orig_data_size file is read-only and specifies uncompressed

+Description:
+ The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed

+Description:
+ The mem_used_total file is read-only and specifies the amount
+ of memory, including allocator fragmentation and metadata
+ overhead, allocated for this disk. So, allocator space
+ efficiency can be calculated using compr_data_size and this
+ statistic.

+Description:
+ The mem_used_max file is read/write and specifies the amount
+ of maximum memory zram have consumed to store compressed data.
+ For resetting the value, you should write "0". Otherwise,
+ you could see -EINVAL.
+ Unit: bytes
+ Downgraded to write-only node: so it's possible to set new
+ value only; its current value is stored in zram<id>/mm_stat
+ node.

+What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_limit
+Date: August 2015
+Contact: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ The mem_limit file is read/write and specifies the maximum
+ amount of memory ZRAM can use to store the compressed data.
+ The limit could be changed in run time and "0" means disable
+ the limit. No limit is the initial state. Unit: bytes
+ Downgraded to write-only node: so it's possible to set new
+ value only; its current value is stored in zram<id>/mm_stat
+ node.

+WARNING
+=======
+per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
+The basic strategy is:
+-- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
+-- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
+
+The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
+Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
+
+Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs node
+(e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files (zram<id>/stat
+or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered to be deprecated.
+
+User space is advised to use the following files to read the device statistics.
+
File /sys/block/zram<id>/stat
