Title:
  zram module not found in 4.4/4.15 KVM kernel

Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-kvm package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-kvm source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-kvm source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  == Justification ==
  In the Xenial / Bionic KVM kernel, the CONFIG_ZRAM was not set, it's impossible for users to use zram module on it. And the ubuntu_zram_smoke_test regression test is failing due to the missing  module.

  == Test ==
  Before enabling CONFIG_ZRAM and the related configs, the zram module cannot be found.
  After that, the zram module can be inserted and pass the ubuntu_zram_smoke_test.

  Test kernels could be found here:
  http://people.canonical.com/~phlin/kernel/lp-1766823-zram/

  == Fix ==
  [bionic/linux-kvm][xenial/linux-kvm][SRU][PATCH] UBUNTU: [Config]: enable CONFIG_ZRAM

  == Regression Potential ==
  Minimal.
  No code changes, just a config changes without disabling any other configs.


  ------

  The ubuntu_zram_smoke_test will fail due to the lack of the zram
  module.
