Revert "staging: zram: Add auto loading of module if user opens /dev/zram."
This reverts commit c70bda992c12e593e411c02a52e4bd6985407539.
It's incorrect, Kay writes:
Please just remove it. "devname" is meant to be used for
single-instance devices with a static dev_t, never for things
like zramX.
It will not do anything useful here, it does nothing really
without a statically assigned dev_t, and it should not be used
for devices of this kind anyway.
