Subject: [PATCH 1/5] zram: remove the call to page_endio in the bio end_io
 handler

zram_page_end_io function is called when alloc_page is used (for
partial IO) to trigger writeback from the user space. The pages used for
this operation is never locked or have the writeback set. So, it is safe
to remove the call to page_endio() function that unlocks or marks
writeback end on the page.

Rename the endio handler from zram_page_end_io to zram_read_end_io as
the call to page_endio() is removed and to associate the callback to the
operation it is used in.
