know.

From: Eric Wheeler <g...@linux.ewheeler.net>
commit f8b11260a445169989d01df75d35af0f56178f95 upstream.
When bch_cache_set_alloc() fails to kzalloc the cache_set, the
asyncronous closure handling tries to dereference a cache_set that
hadn't yet been allocated inside of cache_set_flush() which is called
by __cache_set_unregister() during cleanup. This appears to happen only
during an OOM condition on bcache_register.
