I'm not so sure about moving zcomp destruction. if we would have detached it
from zram, then yes. otherwise, think of zram ->destoy vs ->init race.

suppose,
CPU1 waits for down_write() init lock in disksize_store() with new comp already 
allocated;
CPU0 detaches ->meta and releases write init lock;
CPU1 grabs the lock and does zram->comp = comp;
CPU0 reaches the point of zcomp_destroy(zram->comp);


I'd probably prefer to keep zcomp destruction on its current place. I
see a little real value in introducing zcomp detaching and moving
destruction out of init_lock.
