just as I said in my previous email -- is this live lock really possible?
we need to umount device to continue with reset. and umount will kill IOs out

the other reset caller is __exit zram_exit(). but once again, I don't
expect this function being executed on mounted device and module being
in use.

yes, I think it can do the trick.
