FS-Cache: Exclusive op submission can BUG if there's been an I/O error

The function to submit an exclusive op (fscache_submit_exclusive_op()) can BUG
if there's been an I/O error because it may see the parent cache object in an
unexpected state.  It should only BUG if there hasn't been an I/O error.

In this case the problem was produced by remounting the cache partition to be
R/O.  The EROFS state was detected and the cache was aborted, but not
everything handled the aborting correctly.

SysRq : Emergency Remount R/O
EXT4-fs (sda6): re-mounted. Opts: (null)
Emergency Remount complete
CacheFiles: I/O Error: Failed to update xattr with error -30
FS-Cache: Cache cachefiles stopped due to I/O error
