zsmalloc: reset compaction source zspage pointer after putback_zspage() 

The current implementation of the compaction loop fails to set the source
zspage pointer to NULL in all cases, leading to a potential issue where
__zs_compact() could use a stale zspage pointer.  This pointer could even
point to a previously freed zspage, causing unexpected behavior in the
putback_zspage() and migrate_write_unlock() functions after returning from
the compaction loop.

Address the issue by ensuring that the source zspage pointer is always set
to NULL when it should be.
