From: Mingzhe Zou <[email protected]>

In the previous patch ("bcache: fix cached_dev.sb_bio use-after-free and
crash"), we adopted a simple modification suggestion from AI to fix the
use-after-free.

But in actual testing, we found an extreme case where the device is
stopped before calling bch_write_bdev_super().

At this point, struct closure sb_write has not been initialized yet.
For this patch, we ensure that sb_bio has been completed via
sb_write_mutex.

(Coly Li refines the commit log.)
