[PATCH] bcache: avoid a dangerous addressing in closure_queue

[Liang Chen <liangchen.linux@gmail.com>]

The use of the union reduces the size of closure struct by taking advantage
of the current size of its members. The offset of func in work_struct equals
the size of the first three members, so that work.work_func will just
reference the forth member - the pointer to closure_fn.

This is smart but dangerous. It can be broken if work_struct or the other
ones get changed, and can be a bit difficult to debug.
