commit 0d8359620d9b ("zram: support page writeback") introduced
two problems. It overwrites writeback_store's return value as
kstrtol's return value, which makes return value zero so user
could see zero as return value of write syscall even though it
wrote data successfully.
It also breaks index value in the loop in that it doesn't
increase the index any longer. It means it can write only
first starting block index so user couldn't write all idle
pages in the zram so lose memory saving chance.
This patch fixes those issues.
