Panic/lockup in z3fold_zpool_free

Hello.

Since 5.19 series, zswap went unstable for me under memory pressure, and occasionally I get the following:

```

```

This happens on the latest v5.19.10 kernel as well.

Sometimes it's not a soft lockup but GPF, although the stack trace is the same. So, to me it looks like a memory corruption, UAF, double free or something like that.

Have you got any idea regarding what's going on?

Thanks.
