Subject: [PATCH] dm cache: require io_mode cache feature selection to be mutually exclusive

Due to commit 629d0a8a1a10 ("dm cache metadata: add "metadata2" feature"),
when creating a dm cache device, more than one io_mode can be selected.
As the io_mode selections are incompatible with one another, we should
force them to be selected exclusively. Add simple ctr to check for
more than one io_mode selection.
