Joe Thornber 291e2b3900 dm thin metadata: don't issue prefetches if a transaction abort has failed ...

commit 2eae9e4489 upstream.

If a transaction abort has failed then we can no longer use the metadata
device.  Typically this happens if the superblock is unreadable.

This fix addresses a crash seen during metadata device failure testing.
