Coverity has noticed that the printing of error message in
register_cache() uses already freed bdev_handle to get to bdev. In fact
the problem has been there even before commit "bcache: Convert to
bdev_open_by_path()" just a bit more subtle one - cache object itself
could have been freed by the time we looked at ca->bdev and we don't
hold any reference to bdev either so even that could in principle go
away (due to device unplug or similar). Fix all these problems by
printing the error message before closing the bdev.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
