zram: cosmetic: cleanup documentation
zram documentation is a mix of different styles: spaces, tabs, tabs +
spaces, etc. Clean it up.

2) Set max number of compression streams
- Regardless the value passed to this attribute, ZRAM will always
- allocate multiple compression streams - one per online CPUs - thus
- allowing several concurrent compression operations. The number of
- allocated compression streams goes down when some of the CPUs
- become offline. There is no single-compression-stream mode anymore,
- unless you are running a UP system or has only 1 CPU online.

3) Select compression algorithm
- Using comp_algorithm device attribute one can see available and
- currently selected (shown in square brackets) compression algorithms,
- change selected compression algorithm (once the device is initialised

4) Set Disksize
- Set disk size by writing the value to sysfs node 'disksize'.
- The value can be either in bytes or you can use mem suffixes.

- # Initialize /dev/zram0 with 50MB disksize
- echo $((50*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize

5) Set memory limit: Optional

- The value can be either in bytes or you can use mem suffixes.
- In addition, you could change the value in runtime.
