zram is an useful module for memory constrained systems. However it's
imposibble for KVM kernel user to use it.

Enable the CONFIG_ZRAM and other related configs like in generic kernel to make
it available for KVM kernels, so that it can pass the ubuntu_zram_smoke_test
in the SRU regression test suite.

CONFIG_ZRAM_WRITEBACK hasn't been implemented yet in Xenial's 4.4 kernel.

Thanks, I will send V2 for this.

BTW, how did you find this issue, I tried to build the kernel before
sending this patch but the compiler didn't complain about his.

I ran a grep in the debian* directories (and also on the source code
itself to double check) looking for the config options, not finding it I
checked the mainline tree for the introducing commit.


Thanks,
Kleber
