In zs_create_pool(), prev_class is assigned (ZS_SIZE_CLASSES - 1) times. And the prev_class only references to the previous size_class. So we do not need unnecessary assignement. This patch assigns *prev_class* when a new size_class structure is allocated and uses prev_class to check whether the first class has been allocated.
