zswap_tree is not freed when swapoff, and it got re-kmalloced in swapon, so a memory leak occurs.
Free the memory of zswap_tree in zswap_frontswap_invalidate_area().

Consider the following scenario: thread 0: reclaim entry x (get refcount, but not call zswap_get_swap_cache_page) thread 1: call zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page to invalidate entry x. finished, entry x and its zbud is not freed as its refcount != 0 now, the swap_map[x] = 0 thread 0: now call zswap_get_swap_cache_page swapcache_prepare return -ENOENT because entry x is not used any more zswap_get_swap_cache_page return ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NOMEM zswap_writeback_entry do nothing except put refcount Now, the memory of zswap_entry x and its zpage leak.
Modify: - check the refcount in fail path, free memory if it is not referenced.
- use ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_FAIL instead of ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NOMEM as the fail path can be not only caused by nomem but also by invalidate.
