Subject: [PATCH 5.3 291/344] z3fold: fix memory leak in kmem cache

From: Vitaly Wool <vitalywool@...il.com>

commit 63398413c00c7836ea87a1fa205c91d2199b25cf upstream.

Currently there is a leak in init_z3fold_page() -- it allocates handles
from kmem cache even for headless pages, but then they are never used and
never freed, so eventually kmem cache may get exhausted.  This patch
provides a fix for that.
