After commit e2846124f9a2 ("zsmalloc: zs_page_migrate: skip unnecessary
loops but not return -EBUSY if zspage is not inuse") zs_page_migrate
can handle the ZS_EMPTY zspage.

But it will affect the free_work free the zspage.  That will make this
ZS_EMPTY zspage stay in system until another zspage wake up free_work.

Make this patch let zs_page_migrate wake up free_work if need.

Fixes: e2846124f9a2 ("zsmalloc: zs_page_migrate: skip unnecessary loops but not return -EBUSY if zspage is not inuse")
