Sergey Senozhatsky b0377ee804 zram: do not slot_free() written-back slots
slot_free() basically completely resets the slots by clearing all of
its flags and attributes.  While zram_writeback_complete() restores
some of flags back (those that are necessary for async read
decompression) we still lose a lot of slot's metadata.  For example,
slot's ac-time, or ZRAM_INCOMPRESSIBLE.

More importantly, restoring flags/attrs requires extra attention as
some of the flags are directly affecting zram device stats.  And the
original code did not pay that attention.  Namely ZRAM_HUGE slots
handling in zram_writeback_complete().  The call to slot_free() would
decrement ->huge_pages, however when zram_writeback_complete() restored
the slot's ZRAM_HUGE flag, it would not get reflected in an incremented
->huge_pages.  So when the slot would finally get freed, slot_free()
would decrement ->huge_pages again, leading to underflow.

Fix this by open-coding the required memory free and stats updates in
zram_writeback_complete(), rather than calling the destructive
slot_free().  Since we now preserve the ZRAM_HUGE flag on written-back
slots (for the deferred decompression path), we also update slot_free()
to skip decrementing ->huge_pages if ZRAM_WB is set.
