bcache: make bch_btree_check() to be multithreaded
When registering a cache device, bch_btree_check() is called to check all btree nodes, to make sure the btree is consistent and not corrupted. bch_btree_check() is recursively executed in a single thread, when there are a lot of data cached and the btree is huge, it may take very long time to check all the btree nodes. In my testing, I observed it took around 50 minutes to finish bch_btree_check(). When checking the bcache btree nodes, the cache set is not running yet, and indeed the whole tree is in read-only state, it is safe to create multiple threads to check the btree in parallel. This patch tries to create multiple threads, and each thread tries to one-by-one check the sub-tree indexed by a key from the btree root node. The parallel thread number depends on how many keys in the btree root node. At most BCH_BTR_CHKTHREAD_MAX (64) threads can be created, but in practice is should be min(cpu-number/2, root-node-keys-number).
