The deeper bug here is that zs_map_object() tries to add the page to
the LRU list while the shrinker has it isolated for reclaim. This is
way too sutble and error prone. Even if it worked now, it'll cause
corruption issues down the line.

For example, Nhat is adding a secondary entry point to reclaim.
Reclaim expects that a page that's on the LRU is also on the fullness
list, so this would lead to a double remove_zspage() and BUG_ON().

This patch doesn't just fix the crash, it eliminates the deeper LRU
isolation issue and makes the code more robust and simple.
