Dan Carpenter noted that handle_pending_slot_free() is racy with zram_reset_device(). Take write init_lock in zram_slot_free(), thus preventing any concurrent zram_slot_free(), zram_bvec_rw() or zram_reset_device(). This also allows to safely check zram->init_done in handle_pending_slot_free(). Initial intention was to minimze number of handle_pending_slot_free() call from zram_bvec_rw(), which were slowing down READ requests due to slot_free_lock spin lock. Jerome Marchand suggested to remove handle_pending_slot_free() from zram_bvec_rw().
