[RFC PATCH v1 3/8] zram: use zram->lock to protect zram_free_page() in swap free notify path

[Jiang Liu]

zram_free_page() is protected by down_write(&zram->lock) when called by
zram_bvec_write(), but there's no such protection when called by
zram_slot_free_notify(), which may cause wrong states to zram object.

So enhance zram_slot_free_notify() to acquire writer lock on zram->lock
before calling zram_free_page().
