    Commit 0259d449 ("bcache: move calc_cached_dev_sectors to proper
    place on backing device detach") tries to fix calc_cached_dev_sectors
    when bcache device detaches, but now we have:
    
    cached_dev_detach_finish
        ...
        bcache_device_detach(&dc->disk);
            ...
            closure_put(&d->c->caching);
            d->c = NULL; [*explicitly set dc->disk.c to NULL*]
        list_move(&dc->list, &uncached_devices);
        calc_cached_dev_sectors(dc->disk.c); [*passing a NULL pointer*]
        ...
    
    Upper codeflows shows how bug happens, this patch fix the problem by
    caching dc->disk.c beforehand, and cache_set won't be freed under us
    because c->caching closure at least holds a reference count and closure
    callback __cache_set_unregister only being called by bch_cache_set_stop
    which using closure_queue(&c->caching), that means c->caching closure
    callback for destroying cache_set won't be trigger by previous
    closure_put(&d->c->caching).
    So at this stage(while cached_dev_detach_finish is calling) it's safe to
    access cache_set dc->disk.c.
    
    Fixes: 0259d449 ("bcache: move calc_cached_dev_sectors to proper place on backing device detach")
