zram: fix return value on writeback_store 

commit 57e0076e6575a7b7cef620a0bd2ee2549ef77818 upstream.

writeback_store's return value is overwritten by submit_bio_wait's return
value.  Thus, writeback_store will return zero since there was no IO
error.  In the end, write syscall from userspace will see the zero as
return value, which could make the process stall to keep trying the write
until it will succeed.
