This is the error, I'm talking about:

mm/zsmalloc.c:249:21: error: variably modified ‘size_class’ at file scope
  struct size_class *size_class[ZS_SIZE_CLASSES];

ZS_SIZE_CLASSES
  ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE
    OBJ_INDEX_BITS
      _PFN_BITS
        MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS
          (pgtable_l5_enabled ? 52 : 46)

Check without the patch and full patchset applied.
