Subject: zram: fix operator precedence to get offset

From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4ca82dabc9fbf7bc5322aa54d802cb3cb7b125c5 upstream.

In zram_rw_page, the logic to get offset is wrong by operator precedence
(i.e., "<<" is higher than "&").  With wrong offset, zram can corrupt
the user's data.  This patch fixes it.

Fixes: 8c7f01025 ("zram: implement rw_page operation of zram")
