For anyone wondering why installing `linux-image-generic` works, it's the dependency on the "`linux-image-extra`" for your kernel version.  The `zram` driver is included in that dependency:

```
$ dpkg -L linux-image-extra-4.4.0-112-generic | grep zram
/lib/modules/4.4.0-112-generic/kernel/drivers/block/zram
/lib/modules/4.4.0-112-generic/kernel/drivers/block/zram/zram.ko
```

Without the package, the necessary driver might not be installed.
