From: Coly Li <colyli@xxxxxxx> When shrink btree node cache from c->btree_cache in bch_mca_scan(), no matter the selected node is reaped or not, it will be rotated from the head to the tail of c->btree_cache list. But in bcache journal code, when flushing the btree nodes with oldest journal entry, btree nodes are iterated and slected from the tail of c->btree_cache list in btree_flush_write(). The list_rotate_left() in bch_mca_scan() will make btree_flush_write() iterate more nodes in c->btree_list in reverse order. This patch just reaps the selected btree node cache, and not move it from the head to the tail of c->btree_cache list. Then bch_mca_scan() will not mess up c->btree_cache list to btree_flush_write().
