Revert "bcache: Kill btree_io_wq"
This reverts commit 56b30770b27d54d68ad51eccc6d888282b568cee. With the btree using the `system_wq`, I seem to see a lot more desktop latency than I should. After some more investigation, it looks like the original assumption of 56b3077 no longer is true, and bcache has a very high potential of congesting the `system_wq`. In turn, this introduces laggy desktop performance, IO stalls (at least with btrfs), and input events may be delayed. So let's revert this. It's important to note that the semantics of using `system_wq` previously mean that `btree_io_wq` should be created before and destroyed after other bcache wqs to keep the same assumptions.
