Hi folks,

After more testing, I realize the cached bkeys are not always merged,
this is the bkey dump information from
/sys/kernel/debug/bcache/bcache-87adfbc4-0b11-45b9-9a11-a11cfe5df2eb,
0:16 len 120 -> [0:377856 gen 1] dirty
0:136 len 8 -> [0:377976 gen 1] dirty
0:144 len 896 -> [0:721000 gen 1]
0:4112 len 8 -> [0:393136 gen 1]

So the patched bcache code is behaving correctly, IMHO no more fix
necessary.

I see Shenghui tested and verified the fix, more testing or review
comments are welcome.

Thanks.
