Series of patches for bcache targeting 4.15

Hi Jens--

I have a few last patches for bcache targeting 4.15 if it's
possible to get them in.  I'm sorry this is a bit late.

All are reviewed and have received a moderate amount of test
in my environment (and I'm continuing testing).

[PATCH 1/5] bcache: only permit to recovery read error when cache
[PATCH 2/5] bcache: convert cached_dev.count from atomic_t to
[PATCH 3/5] bcache: update bucket_in_use in real time
[PATCH 4/5] bcache: fix wrong cache_misses statistics
[PATCH 5/5] bcache: explicitly destroy mutex while exiting

Patches 1 and 3 are critical.  The first fixes correctness problems
if a cache volume fails and is being carried in distro trees.  #3
prevents a rare issue that can cause extended hanging of end-user
I/O.  The other three patches are relatively safe cleanup.

Thanks--

Mike
