I tried this, applying the syfs required changes first and then
applying your idea as a secondary patch ends up like this:

The BUG_ON() is doable as we *know* we already have a reference to the
module due to the beginning of the other try_module_get() which would
be placed on the first patch at the top of disksize_store().

This however doesn't fix the issue. We end up in a situation where we
cannot unload the zram driver.
