Commit e914d8f00391 ("mm: fix unexpected zeroed page
mapping with zram swap") removed swap_slot_free_notify()
calls from end_io callbacks.  This means that there is
no more slot_free_notify() from IRQ context and hence
slot-free cannot deadlock on slot lock any more.  Drop
slot trylock.

You don't need the dev_lock any more to just report the version.
And should the version be changed now that you've changed the format to
not include miss_free?

Oh, please ignore this patch.  I realized it doesn't make sense,
we can drop miss_free, but trylock has to stay.
