I wholeheartedly agree with the objective, but I'm still not convinced the benefits outweight the complexity of an extra kernel patch, for two reasons. First, a system so RAM-constrained that can't afford an extra worst-case two page allocation (8192 bytes, for the ~6 kiB lzo-rle module) is most likely not a viable target for OpenWrt anymore (ditto for the extra storage space). Second, if you're using zram and you want to use lzo compression, what you really want is lzo-rle, as it offers higher compression ratios.
