commitfef912bf86upstream. commit98af4d4df8upstream. I got a report from Howard Chen that he saw zram and sysfs race(ie, zram block device file is created but sysfs for it isn't yet) when he tried to create new zram devices via hotadd knob. v4.20 kernel fixes it by [1, 2] but it's too large size to merge into -stable so this patch fixes the problem by registering defualt group by Greg KH's approach[3]. This patch should be applied to every stable tree [3.16+] currently existing from kernel.org because the problem was introduced at 2.6.37 by [4].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
