Subject: [PATCH][next] mm/zswap: fix a couple of memory leaks and rework kzalloc failure check

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

kzalloc failures return NULL on out of memory errors, so replace the
IS_ERR_OR_NULL check with the usual null pointer check.  Fix two memory
leaks with on acomp and acomp_ctx by ensuring these objects are free'd
on the error return path.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")
Fixes: d4f86abd6e35 ("mm/zswap: move to use crypto_acomp API for hardware acceleration")
