Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
        It started after I installed the zramtools package. I get two errors
one is related to not being able to reserve MMIO and the other relates to zram
swap service not starting.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
        I googled the problem, found some blogs that showed me how to configure
zramswap but that made the situation worse.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
        The situation became worse with too many errors coming up as regards
zramswap.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
        I expect the syatem to boot cleanly without any errors. Although
zramswap apparently works when I see the system monitor.

I found that the /usr/sbin/zramswap script is statically configure to always assume zram0, which conflicts with any other package which uses zram as well. I was able to solve this issue by modifying the script to follow the same dynamic assignment used by log2ram instead of statically assuming zram0 is always available:

#!/bin/bash

# This script does the following:
# zramswap start:
#  Space is assigned to the zram device, then swap is initialized and enabled.
# zramswap stop:
#  Somewhat potentially dangerous, removes zram module at the end
