Subject: [PATCH v2] zram_drv: allow reclaim on bio_alloc

The read_from_bdev_async is not called on atomic context. So GFP_NOIO is
available rather than GFP_ATOMIC. If there were reclaimable pages with
GFP_NOIO, we can avoid allocation failure and page fault failure.

v2: use GFP_NOIO only
v1: use GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGHMEM
