It'll be good to have ssd caching session in any case.

I wouldn't categorize the chances of dm-cache going upstream when the v3.9 merge window opens as "very low". But even if dm-cache does go upstream it doesn't preclude bcache and/or enhanceio from going upstream too. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bcache" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
