Now there is variable bcache_is_reboot to prevent device register or unregister during reboot, it is unncessary to still hold mutex lock bch_regsiter_lock before stopping writeback_rate_update kworker and writeback kthread. And if the stopping kworker or kthread holding bch_register_lock inside their routine (we used to have such problem in writeback thread, thanks to Junhui Wang fixed it), it is very easy to introduce deadlock during reboot/shutdown procedure.
Therefore in this patch, the location to acquire bch_register_lock is moved to the location before calling calc_cached_dev_sectors(). Which is later then original location in cached_dev_detach_finish().
