I have an issue with tmpfs on zram: according to this remark:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=project/procd.git;a=commitdiff;h=7676df3226da5391c2dfda2ed29a40500e04e15b
Nathan (incl. in CC of this email) has a hardcoded value for zram0 for tmp.
With inreasing RAM sizes for routers (mine has 4GB), could this be unnecessarily restrictive? For my use case (media and lan server) 16MB tmp drive is definitively too small. Ansuel has raised similar concerns about a year ago:

For almost a year, there seems to exist a patch in the bug tracker, that has no activities:
FS#1943 - procd: Increase zram memory allocated for tmpfs
https://bugs.openwrt.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=1943&string=zram&search_name=&type%5B0%5D=&sev%5B0%5D=&pri%5B0%5D=&due%5B0%5D=&reported%5B0%5D=&cat%5B0%5D=&status%5B0%5D=open&percent%5B0%5D=&opened=&dev=&closed=&duedatefrom=&duedateto=&changedfrom=&changedto=&openedfrom=&openedto=&closedfrom=&closedto
For your convenience, I have included the patch as attachment. Unfortunately, I am quite new to OpenWRT so I am not sure on the right approach to include this patch in my compile.
Therefore could I ask the following questions:
1. Do you have changes to the RAM size (e.g. with the mentioned path) on your roadmap? If so, do you already have an approximate ETA?
2. What are the rough steps to correctly include the mentioned path in the package for testing?
