zram: remove zram->lock in read path and change it with mutex

Finally, we separated zram->lock dependency from 32bit stat/ table
handling so there is no reason to use rw_semaphore between read and
write path so this patch removes the lock from read path totally and
changes rw_semaphore with mutex.  So, we could do

old:

  read-read: OK
  read-write: NO
  write-write: NO

Now:

  read-read: OK
  read-write: OK
  write-write: NO

The below data proves mixed workload performs well 11 times and there is
also enhance on write-write path because current rw-semaphore doesn't
support SPIN_ON_OWNER.  It's side effect but anyway good thing for us.

Write-related tests perform better (from 61% to 1058%) but read path has
good/bad(from -2.22% to 1.45%) but they are all marginal within stddev.
