That was one I wrote but have thought it more.

Because I suspect fs can submit page-size IO in non-aligned PAGE_SIZE
sector? For example, it can submit PAGE_SIZE read request from 9 sector.
Is it possible? I don't know.

As well, FS can format zram from sector 1, not sector 0? IOW, can't it
use starting sector as non-page algined sector?
We can do it via fdisk?

Anyway, If one of scenario I mentioned is possible, zram_rw_page will
be broken.

If it's hard to check all of scenario in this moment, it would be
better to not remove it and then add WARN_ON(offset) in there.

While I am writing this, I found this.

/**
 * bdev_read_page() - Start reading a page from a block device
 * @bdev: The device to read the page from
 * @sector: The offset on the device to read the page to (need not be aligned)
 * @page: The page to read
 *

Hmm,, need investigation but no time.
