backing_dev_store() can't be called on an initialized device,
that's what init_done() at the very beginning of backing_dev_store()
is supposed to ensure:

...
	down_write(&zram->init_lock);
	if (init_done(zram)) {
		pr_info("Can't setup backing device for initialized device\n");
		err = -EBUSY;
		goto out;
	}
...
