I'm currently testing a similar setup, but it turns out that setup and
operations are a bit clumsy:

1. ceph-disk-prepare when given the bcache device always wants to
create a partition on it, which isn't possible, so as a workaround I
have to manually put a FS onto the device, mount it and give ceph-disk
the mount-point.
2. Since there is no partition, there is also no type UUID, so the
usual udev based autostart mechanisms do not work. Running "ceph-disk
activate /dev/bcache0" works fine though.

Did you come up with some more clever solutions for this?

Also, do you have some experience with broken disks? I'm wondering if
one failing disk will affect performance for the others running in the
same cache set.
