dm thin metadata: don't issue prefetches if a transaction abort has failed
commit 2eae9e4489b4cf83213fa3bd508b5afca3f01780 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.
