Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] zram: avoid disksize setting when device is being claimed

As with other areas of the zram diver, check if the zram
block device is being claimed but do it early to avoid
trying to set something up for a zram device which may
be on its way out.

This doesn't fix a known crash, however the potential for
an issue issue is found through code inspection.
