Subject: [PATCH 7/7] zram: remove unnecessary lock
read/write lock's performance is really bad compared to
mutex_lock in write most workload.(AFAIR, recenlty there
were some effort to enhance it but not sure it got merged).
Anyway, we don't need such big granuarity read-write lock
any more so this patch replaces read/write lock with mutex.

Read side seem to be a bit slower than old but I believe it's not
bad deal if we consider increased performance of write side and
code readability.
