In function zram_bvec_write(), previous data at the index is
already freed by function zram_free_page().
When failed to compress or zs_malloc, there is no way to restore old data.
Therefore, free previous data when it's about to update.

Also, no need to check whether table is not empty outside of
function zram_free_page(), because the function properly checks inside.
