Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] zram: remove workqueue for freeing removed pending slot

[1] introduced free request pending code to avoid scheduling
by mutex under spinlock and it was a mess which made code
lenghty and increased overhead.

Now, we don't need zram->lock any more to free slot so
this patch reverts it and then, tb_lock should protect it.

[1] a0c516c, zram: don't grab mutex in zram_slot_free_noity
