[LTP] [PATCH v2] zram03: drop obsolete sysfs interfaces

[Yang Shi]

Due to upstream linux commit c87d1655c29500b459fb135258a93f8309ada9c7
("zram: remove obsolete sysfs attrs"), some sysfs interfaces are not
available anymore.

Check kernel version, and remove dumping them on >= 4.10 kernel to avoid
test case failure.

v1 --> v2:
Check kernel version to dump proper stats per Li Wang's suggestion

[LTP] [PATCH v2] zram03: drop obsolete sysfs interfaces

Hi Yang,

From the commit is seen, that most of them (missing num_reads and
num_writes) has been accessible for some time from /sys/block/zram<id>/mm_stat.
And indeed the docs [1] confirm that. Maybe it'd make sense to parse this file
and use the data.

/sys/block/zram<id>/mm_stat was added in 4f2109f608815 (v4.1-rc1)
Interesting, it's also in Centos7 3.10.0-693 kernel, it must have been
backported there (obviously not in 3.16 from Debian).

Kind regards,
Petr

Hi Petr,

I am sorry for missing this patch.

I got the same issue and have sent another patch to fix it as you suggested.
Could you help me review the following patch:
