dm writecache: add unlikely for getting two block with same LBA

[Huaisheng Ye]

From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@lenovo.com>

In function writecache_writeback, entries g and f has same original
sector only happens at entry f has been committed, but entry g has
NOT yet.

The probability of this happening is very low in the following
 256 blocks at most of entry e, so add unlikely for the result.
