bcache: add wait_for_kthread_stop() in bch_allocator_thread()

When CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE is set on cache set flags, bcache allocator
thread routine bch_allocator_thread() may stop the while-loops and
exit. Then it is possible to observe the following kernel oops message,

[  631.071085] bcache: bcache_device_free() bcache0 stopped

The reason is when cache_set_flush() tries to call kthread_stop() to stop
allocator thread, but it exits already due to cache device I/O errors.

This patch adds wait_for_kthread_stop() at tail of bch_allocator_thread(),
to prevent the thread routine exiting directly. Then the allocator thread
can be blocked at wait_for_kthread_stop() and wait for cache_set_flush()
to stop it by calling kthread_stop().

changelog:
v3: add Reviewed-by from Hannnes.
v2: not directly return from allocator_wait(), move 'return 0' to tail of
    bch_allocator_thread().
v1: initial version.
