Hi all,

I get a kernel oops from bcache when writing to
/sys/block/bcache0/bcache/writeback_percent and there is no attached
cache device. See the oops itself below my signature.

This is on Linux 4.19.46. I looked in git and see many commits to
bcache lately, but none seem to address this particular issue.

Background: I'm writing to .../writeback_percent with
systemd-tmpfiles. I'd rather not replace it with a script that figures
out whether or not the kernel will oops if writing to the sysfs file
-- the kernel should not oops in the first place.

Best regards,
