Subject: [PATCH 2/2] zram: clear IDLE flag in mark_idle()

If entry does not fulfill current mark_idle() parameters, e.g.
cutoff time, then we should clear its ZRAM_IDLE from previous
mark_idle() invocations.

Consider the following case:
- mark_idle() cutoff time 8h
- mark_idle() cutoff time 4h
- writeback() idle - will writeback entries with cutoff time 8h,
  while it should only pick entries with cutoff time 4h
