Subject: [PATCH V2 3/4] zram: avoid race between zram_remove and disksize_store

After resetting device in zram_remove(), disksize_store still may come and
allocate resources again before deleting gendisk, fix the race by resetting
zram after del_gendisk() returns. At that time, disksize_store can't come
any more.
