Subject: [PATCH] zram: destroy all devices on error recovery path in
zram_init()
commit 39a9b8ac9333e4268ecff7da6c9d1ab3823ff243 upstream.
On error recovery path of zram_init(), it leaks the zram device object
causing the failure. So change create_device() to free allocated
resources on error path.
