[Andrew Morton]

The patch titled
     Subject: zram: use a custom key for each zram object
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch.  Its filename is
     zram-use-a-custom-key-for-each-zram-object.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/zram-use-a-custom-key-for-each-zram-object.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews.  Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.

The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next

If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: zram: use a custom key for each zram object
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 16:13:00 +0200

Each struct zram uses the same key for its struct lockdep_map which is
used for locking analysis.

According to Sergey the lock chains might be different if zram1 is used
for and zram2 is for ext4.  This might lead to false dead lock reports if
it mixes a zram1 chain with a zram2.  This can be avoided if each lockmap
gets its own unique key.c

Use a dynamic lock_class_key for the table_lock_map.
