With a the recent bcache refactoring, some of the closure code isn't
needed anymore.

Kent Overstreet 6aa8f1a6ca bcache: Fix a dumb race
In the far-too-complicated closure code - closures can have destructors,
for probably dubious reasons; they get run after the closure is no
longer waiting on anything but before dropping the parent ref, intended
just for freeing whatever memory the closure is embedded in.

Trouble is, when remaining goes to 0 and we've got nothing more to run -
we also have to unlock the closure, setting remaining to -1. If there's
a destructor, that unlock isn't doing anything - nobody could be trying
to lock it if we're about to free it - but if the unlock _is needed...
that check for a destructor was racy. Argh.

Commit 82a84eaf7e51ba3da0c36cbc401034a4e943492d left a return 0 in
closure_debug_init(). Whoops.

Kent Overstreet cafe563591 bcache: A block layer cache
Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and
has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage.
