+ zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
+ compressed RAM pages. zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
+ in order to reduce fragmentation. However, this results in a
+ non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
+ returned by an alloc(). This handle must be mapped in order to
+ access the allocated space.
