This alone is not very useful.
With something like:

if (WARN_ON(cache->length) == 0)
  .... (and the message including the block group's logical address
too, the ->start field)

Such a bug is much easier to spot. If a test case from fstests
triggers it, it will be reported as a test failure.

Why not an ASSERT() instead? Though I don't have a strong preference
between the two for this case.
Either option will make it easy to spot with fstests.

As for the rest, the fix itself looks good to me.
You can later add,
