The zram->comp_algs[ZRAM_PRIMARY_COMP] can be NULL in zram_add() if
comp_algorithm_set() has not been called.  User can access the zram device
by sysfs after device_add_disk(), so there is a time window to trigger the
NULL pointer dereference.  Move it ahead device_add_disk() to make sure
when user can access the zram device, it is ready.  comp_algorithm_set()
is protected by zram->init_lock in other places and no such problem.
