[PATCH] mm: zcache: zcache_cleancache_flush_fs fix

[Piotr Sarna <p.sarna@partner.samsung.com>]

This patch fixes "mm: zcache: core functions added" patch,
available at https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/20/90.
It regards incorrect implementation of zcache_cleancache_flush_fs().

Function above should be effective only if cleancache pool referred
by pool_id is valid. This issue is checked by testing whether zpool
points to NULL.

Unfortunately, if filesystem mount fails, such pool is never created
and fs/super.c calls cleancache_invalidate_fs() function with pool_id
parameter set to -1. This results in assigning zpool with pools[-1],
which causes zpool to be not NULL and thus whole function hangs on
uninitialized read-write lock.

To prevent that behaviour, pool_id should be checked for being positive
before assigning zpool variable with pools[pool_id].
