Hello,

since we detached ->meta from zram, this one doesn't really need
->init_lock protection:

	/* Free all pages that are still in this zram device */
	for (index = 0; index < zram->disksize >> PAGE_SHIFT; index++) {
		unsigned long handle = meta->table[index].handle;
		if (!handle)
			continue;

		zs_free(meta->mem_pool, handle);
	}
