commit a664d0f0
    bcache: fix crash on shutdown in passthrough mode

added a safeguard in the shutdown case. At least while not being
attached it is also possible to trigger a kernel bug by writing into
writeback_running. This change  adds the same check before trying to
wake up the thread for that case.
