[PATCH 013/145] zram: protect sysfs handler from invalid memory access

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.8.13.5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiang Liu <liuj97 at gmail.com>

commit 5863e10b441e7ea4b492f930f1be180a97d026f3 upstream.

Use zram->init_lock to protect access to zram->meta, otherwise it
may cause invalid memory access if zram->meta has been freed by
zram_reset_device().

This issue may be triggered by:
Thread 1:
while true; do cat mem_used_total; done
Thread 2:
while true; do echo 8M > disksize; echo 1 > reset; done

[ luis: backported to 3.8:
  - protect access to zram->mem_pool instead of zram->meta ]
