[PATCH 2/2] staging: zram: prevent accessing an unallocated table when init fails early

[Jerome Marchand]

When the allocation of zram->table fails, we set zram->disksize to zero
to prevent accessing the unallocated table entries during cleanup.
However, we currently don't take this precaution when the initialization
fails earlier.
