From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: zram: propagate error to user

When we initialized zcomp with single, we couldn't change max_comp_streams
without zram reset but current interface doesn't show any error to user
and even it changes max_comp_streams's value without any effect so it
would make user very confusing.

This patch prevents max_comp_streams's change when zcomp was initialized
as single zcomp and emit the error to user(ex, echo).
