[ Upstream commit 8cfb98196cceec35416041c6b91212d2b99392e4 ]

Memory/pages are not freed, when unloading nullblk driver.

Steps to reproduce issue
  1.free -h
        total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:    7.8Gi       260Mi       7.1Gi       3.0Mi       395Mi       7.3Gi
Swap:      0B          0B          0B
  2.modprobe null_blk memory_backed=1
  3.dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/nullb0 oflag=direct bs=1M count=1000
  4.modprobe -r null_blk
  5.free -h
        total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:    7.8Gi       1.2Gi       6.1Gi       3.0Mi       398Mi       6.3Gi
