Instead of returning just NULL, return ERR_PTR from zcomp_create()
if compressing backend creation has failed. ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) for
unsupported compression algorithm request, ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) for
allocation (zcomp or compression stream) error.

Perform IS_ERR() check of returned from zcomp_create() value in
disksize_store() and set return code to PTR_ERR().

Change suggested by Jerome Marchand.

The disksize_store() error ends up being unnecessarily inconsistent in
its handling of `err' and in its freeing/unlocking flow.  How about
doing it this way?

	if (!disksize)
		return -EINVAL;

	disksize = PAGE_ALIGN(disksize);
	meta = zram_meta_alloc(disksize);
	if (!meta)
		return -ENOMEM;

	comp = zcomp_create(zram->compressor, zram->max_comp_streams);
	if (IS_ERR(comp)) {
		pr_info("Cannot initialise %s compressing backend\n",
				zram->compressor);
		err = PTR_ERR(comp);
		goto out_free_meta;
	}

	down_write(&zram->init_lock);
	if (init_done(zram)) {
		pr_info("Cannot change disksize for initialized device\n");
		err = -EBUSY;
		goto out_destroy_comp;
	}
