Why did you create this entire layer > of indirection, singleton management under drivers/soc? qpace seems to be standalone/independent arch/soc specific, and can gain users outside of zram (fs compression, zswap, etc.). zram's backends potentially can disappear all together, if we switch to acomp crypto API.
