Ming-Hung Tsai 8c0ee19db8 dm cache: fix missing return in invalidate_committed's error path 
In passthrough mode, dm-cache defers write submission until after
metadata commit completes via the invalidate_committed() continuation.
On commit error, invalidate_committed() calls invalidate_complete() to
end the bio and free the migration struct, after which it should return
immediately.

The patch 4ca8b8bd95 ("dm cache: fix write hang in passthrough mode")
omitted this early return, causing execution to fall through into the
success path on error. This results in use-after-free on the migration
struct in the subsequent calls.

Fix by adding the missing return after the invalidate_complete() call.
