Apologies for the late response (I have been looking at the bug report
and trying to figure out just what's going on, though)

For a more immediate solution: you can force run a backing device when
the cache set isn't available. If you were using it in writeback mode
and there was dirty data in the cache there's going to be data
corruption, but IME ext4 fsck can do wonders so it shouldn't be a total
loss:
