This change is okay.

This change is not required as we give buffer reference to pos->bh at
the time of cache update.
When we start reading a file, first we try to read the cache which
will lead to cache miss.
So, we would really access the pos->bh in udf_update_extent_cache for
the first time, and this is where the buffer reference is incremented.
Calling get_bh at 2 places will eventually lead to mem leak.
Let me know your opinion.
Thanks for review and change!
