Subject: [PATCH 3.16 068/305] bcache: fix wrong cache_misses statistics

3.16.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "tang.junhui" <tang.junhui@....com.cn>

commit c157313791a999646901b3e3c6888514ebc36d62 upstream.

Currently, Cache missed IOs are identified by s->cache_miss, but actually,
there are many situations that missed IOs are not assigned a value for
s->cache_miss in cached_dev_cache_miss(), for example, a bypassed IO
(s->iop.bypass = 1), or the cache_bio allocate failed. In these situations,
it will go to out_put or out_submit, and s->cache_miss is null, which leads
bch_mark_cache_accounting() to treat this IO as a hit IO.
