drivers/md/bcache/super.c: use kvmalloc

Browse Source 
bcache_device_init uses kmalloc for small requests and vmalloc for those
which are larger than 64 pages.  This alone is a strange criterion.
Moreover kmalloc can fallback to vmalloc on the failure.  Let's simply
use kvmalloc instead as it knows how to handle the fallback properly
