Calling handle_pending_slot_free() for every RW operation may
cause unneccessary slot_free_lock locking, because most likely
process will see NULL slot_free_rq. handle_pending_slot_free()
only when current detects that slot_free_rq is not NULL.

v3: do not acquire zram lock in zram_slot_free().
v2: protect handle_pending_slot_free() with zram rw_lock.
