A check that rejects a CDB with FUA bit set if no write cache is
emulated was added by the following commit:

  fde9f50 target: Add sanity checks for DPO/FUA bit usage

The condition is as follows:

  if (!dev->dev_attrib.emulate_fua_write ||
      !dev->dev_attrib.emulate_write_cache)

However, this check is wrong if the backend device supports WCE but
"emulate_write_cache" is disabled.

This patch uses se_dev_check_wce() (previously named
spc_check_dev_wce) to invoke transport->get_write_cache() if the
device has a write cache or check the "emulate_write_cache" attribute
otherwise.
