OK, I'll pick up changes from -testing until directed elsewhere.
BTW, here are couple things I've noticed with bcache:
- The log messages seem to have an extra newline at the end.
- bcache doesn't appear to be establishing proper holders on the devices
it uses for the backing and cache devices.
- lsblk doesn't show any associations with bcache devices.
- the fio utility isn't able to get any stats for the bcache device or
the devices bcache uses.
- if I 'stop' a bcache device (using sysfs) while it is mounted; once I
unmount the filesystem the device that bcache was using as a cache
still has an open count of 1 but the bcache device then no longer
exists
