Subject: bcache: Fix a sysfs splat on shutdown

From: Kent Overstreet <kmo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c9502ea4424b31728703d113fc6b30bfead14633 upstream.

If we stopped a bcache device when we were already detaching (or
something like that), bcache_device_unlink() would try to remove a
symlink from sysfs that was already gone because the bcache dev kobject
had already been removed from sysfs.

So keep track of whether we've removed stuff from sysfs.
