#1546083 — [PATCH v4 2/3] zram: revalidate disk under init_lock

[1] moved revalidate_disk call out of init_lock to avoid lockdep
false-positive splat. However, [2] remove init_lock in IO path
so there is no worry about lockdep splat. So, let's restore it.
This patch need to set BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES atomically in
next patch.

[1] b4c5c60920e3: zram: avoid lockdep splat by revalidate_disk
[2] 08eee69fcf6b: zram: remove init_lock in zram_make_request
