[PATCH 07/11] cleancache: Make cleancache_init use a pointer for the ops

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk]

Instead of using a backend_registered to determine whether
a backend is enabled. This allows us to remove the
backend_register check and just do 'if (cleancache_ops)'

[v1: Rebase on top of b97c4b430b0a405a57c78607b520d8000329e259
