md/raid5-cache: fix a deadlock in r5l_exit_log()

Commit b13015af ("md/raid5-cache: Clear conf->log after finishing
work") introduce a new problem:

// caller hold reconfig_mutex
r5l_exit_log
 flush_work(&log->disable_writeback_work)
			r5c_disable_writeback_async
			 wait_event
			  /*
			   * conf->log is not NULL, and mddev_trylock()
			   * will fail, wait_event() can never pass.
			   */
 conf->log = NULL

Fix this problem by setting 'config->log' to NULL before wake_up() as it
used to be, so that wait_event() from r5c_disable_writeback_async() can
exist. In the meantime, move forward md_unregister_thread() so that
null-ptr-deref this commit fixed can still be fixed.
