Yes

If zram module was loaded but not used, then we can rmmod and do 
modprobe(case needs a clean zram envrionment). IMO, it doesn't affect 
any things.
If zram module was loaded but used, then rmmod failed and case skips.

ps: zram01 need to rmmod and modprobe zram. So if kernel built with 
CONFIG_ZRAM=y, we also need to TCONF. But it is another story.

Agree.
