Subject: [PATCH] mm/zram: correct ZRAM_ZERO flag bit position

In struct zram_table_entry, the element *value* contains obj size and
obj zram flags. Bit 0 to bit (ZRAM_FLAG_SHIFT - 1) represent obj size,
and bit ZRAM_FLAG_SHIFT to the highest bit of unsigned long represent obj
zram_flags. So the first zram flag(ZRAM_ZERO) should be from ZRAM_FLAG_SHIFT
instead of (ZRAM_FLAG_SHIFT + 1).

This patch fixes this issue.

Also this patch fixes a typo, "page in now accessed" -> "page is now accessed"
