Replace destruction paths with simple returns before the test cgroup is
created, there is nothing to free or destroy at that point.

Remove pointless check, stored_pages is a size_t and cannot be < 0.

stored_pages will be set to -1 on error.  It would be better to cast
stored_pages to ssize_t in the check, rather than simply ignoring
errors?

I'm not sure I understood, isn't it safe to just rely on the return value of
get_zswap_stored_pages a few lines above? In that case we break the loop and
the value of stored_pages is not used.
