Depending on the performance impact on your particular SSD, you could also
try enabling TRIM in bcache which should reduce the need for over
provisioning by making sure the SSD knows which blocks it can erase in the
background. It would be nice if bcache supported a manual TRIM like fstrim
works for filesystems so if you have an SSD whose performance precludes real
time TRIM you could schedule a daily or weekly batch TRIM to tune things up.
