Actually, I found it for the last review cycle but didn't say that
intentionally. Because it is also odd to me that pages_stored isn't
increased for same_pages so I thought we can fix it all.

I mean:

* normal page
        inc pages_stored
        inc compr_data_size
* same_page
        inc pages_stored
        inc same_pages
* dedup_page
        inc pages_stored
        inc dup_data_size
         
IOW, pages_stored should be increased for every write IO.
But the concern is we have said in zram.txt

 orig_data_size   uncompressed size of data stored in this disk.
                  This excludes same-element-filled pages (same_pages) since
                  no memory is allocated for them.

So, we might be too late. :-(
What do you think about it?
If anyone doesn't have any objection, I want to correct it all.

Thanks.
