At a minimum make the argument a "const int *" so it does not look like
the value can be changed by the leaf functions.

...but I would challenge zram folks to ack/nak that change rather than
maintain old behavior based purely on momentum. I.e. add to the commit
message an "exclude zswap from this policy for $explicit_reason"
statement rather than the current $implicit_guess that the old behavior
is there for "reasons".
