Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] zsmalloc: remove unnecessary size_class NULL check

pool->size_class array elements can't be NULL, so this check
is not needed.

In the whole code, we assign pool->size_class[i] values that are
not NULL. Releasing memory for these values occurs in the
zs_destroy_pool() function, which also releases and destroys the pool.

In addition, in the zs_stats_size_show() and async_free_zspage(),
with similar iterations over the array, we don't check it for NULL
pointer.
