This patch delay the cache io submit in cached_dev_submit_bio
and wait for cache set detach finish.
So if the cache device become missing, bcache detach cache set
automatically,
and the io will sumbit normally.

Comparing to make bcache device living as it looks like, avoiding data
corruption or stale is much more critical. Therefore once there is
critical device failure detected, the following I/O requests must be
stopped (especially write request) to avoid further data corruption.
Without the above checking for CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE, the cache has to be
attached until there is no I/O. For a busy system it should be quite
long time. Then users may encounter silent data corruption or
inconsistency after a long time since hardware failed.
Again, with the above change, you may introduce other issue which more
hard to detect.

This is unacceptible, neither the infinite loop nor the msleep. You
cannot solve the target issue by an infinite retry, such method will
introduce more issue from other place.

This change is wrong. bucket == -1 indicates the bucket allocator
doesn't work properly, if it happens something really critical
happening. This is why BUG_ON is used here.
With the above change, you will encounter other strange issue sooner or
later and hard to tell the root cause.
mutex_unlock(&ca->set->bucket_lock);
prio_io(ca, bucket, REQ_OP_WRITE, 0);
Currently I don't have clear idea on how to avoid the IO error return
value during cache set detaching for a failed cache device. But it
cannot be such simple change by the this patch.
