Good catch.
Just out of curiosity.

Did you catch it by code review or real workload?

How abouting moving failed_reads/writes in zram_bvec_rw?

int zram_bvec_rw(..)
{
        if (rw == READ) {
                atomic64_inc(num_reads);
                ret = zram_bvec_read(xxx);
        } else {
                atomic64_inc(&num_writes);
                ret = zram_bvec_write(xxx);
        }

        if (unlikely(ret)) {
                if (rw == READ)
                        atomic64_inc(failed_reads);
                else
                        atomic64_inc(failed_writes);
        }
}
