Sure. I will also include affected stable version in the changelog (or
whatever stable_kernel_rules says).

Ok, I have way too many different, and competing, zram patches in my
inbox right now.

So I'm just going to delete them all, and ask Nitin to resend them all
so I know what is going on here.

Nitin, is that ok?

It is?  How come no one said that in the patch itself?  Please read
Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt for how to properly include a
patch into the stable tree.

What stable trees should it go to?

Hi Greg,

I would like to tidy zram_bvec_write up but it needs more churn
than needed to fix this bug and makes review hard. So I want you to pick up
this patch asap because it's a candidate of stable.

Thanks.

 Changelog v3 vs v2:

  - Changelog message now correctly explains the problem
 
 Fixes a bug introduced by commit c8f2f0db1 (zram: Fix handling
 of incompressible pages) which caused invalid memory references
 during disk write. Invalid references could occur in two cases:
  - Incoming data expands on compression: In this case, reference was
 made to kunmap()'ed bio page.
  - Partial (non PAGE_SIZE) write with incompressible data: In this
 case, reference was made to a kfree()'ed buffer.

Ok, I have way too many different, and competing, zram patches in my

So I'm just going to delete them all, and ask Nitin to resend them all
