22	  memory hotplug may have different options here.

562	  A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages.  It takes
563	  pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
564	  compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
565	  This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
566	  in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
567	  reads, can also improve workload performance.
568
569	  This is marked experimental because it is a new feature (as of
570	  v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim.  While these
571	  interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,
572	  they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential
573	  configurations and workloads that exist.

607	  zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
608	  compressed RAM pages.  zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
609	  in order to reduce fragmentation.  However, this results in a
610	  non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
611	  returned by an alloc().  This handle must be mapped in order to
612	  access the allocated space.

618	  By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to
619	  access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular
620	  architecture (ex, ARM) performs VM mapping faster than copying,
621	  then you should select this. This causes zsmalloc to use page table
622	  mapping rather than copying for object mapping.
