Subject: [PATCH] zram: set default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps()
Patch series "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko".
Sashiko drove by and reported [1] a couple of zram issues:
a possible BUG_ON() in zlib code due to missing winbits range validation and one possible NULL-ptr dereference in zcomp. Both are low risk yet still worth fixing.
This patch (of 2):
zram_destroy_comps() resets all compressors and leaves them set to NULL, including the primary one, which is invalid device state, as now comp_algorithm_show()->strcmp() can be called on a NULL compressor. Set default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps().

maintainerPATCH 1/2 zram: switch to guard() for init_lock
From: Sergey Senozhatsky <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 0d38260c2a11de147f0c4701b344fdfa6bcdd04c ]
Use init_lock guard() in sysfs store/show handlers, in order to simplify and, more importantly, to modernize the code.
While at it, fix up more coding styles.
For the 6.12 stable backport, retain only the zram_reset_device() conversion needed by the follow-up fix. The remaining upstream hunks apply to zram paths that have significantly diverged in this tree.
