Summary

From openzfs 0ae184a6baaf71e155e9b19af81b75474622ff58 commit message:

If we do not write any buffers to the cache device and the evict hand
has not advanced do not update the cache device header.

Cherry-picked from openzfs master 0ae184a6b

MFC after: 3 days

This prevents zfs from continously writing to l2arc on an idle system.
Fix relevant for 13.0-RELEASE
