Good catch, tst_require_module() in tst_test.sh should be fixed.
Also, if I look correctly, there is no TST_NEEDS_MODULE equivalent for C API
(probably not needed).

FYI When Naresh Kamboju put LTP zram tests into kselftest back in 2015,
he modified it to support also zram built-in (CONFIG_ZRAM=y).
We don't support it, thus CONFIG_ZRAM=m is OK now, but we should consider to add
at least some minimal support for CONFIG_ZRAM=y.
Kind regards,
Petr
