Subject: [PATCH v3] zram: fix invalid memory references during disk write

Changelog v3 vs v2:
 - Further changes to changelog message to explain the bug case
of incorrect use of kunmapped buffer
Changelog v2 vs v1:
 - Changelog message now correctly explains the problem

Fixes a bug introduced by commit c8f2f0db1 ("zram: Fix handling
of incompressible pages") which caused invalid memory references
during disk write. Invalid references could occur in two cases:
 - Incoming data expands on compression: In this case, reference was
made to kunmap()'ed bio page.
 - Partial (non PAGE_SIZE) write with incompressible data: In this
case, reference was made to a kfree()'ed buffer.

Fixes bug 50081:
