Yes, I don't seem to need those.

Yes. Looks like I need to *either* explicitly pre-register the devices
*or* specify them both in the mount command.

Thanks for the clarification.

The option that I'm going with for now is:

  bcache format --tier 0 --bucket=512k --cache_mode=writeback \
      -C /dev/nvme0n1 \
      --tier 1 -C /dev/sdd1

  mount -t bcache /dev/nvme0n1:/dev/sdd1 /mnt/whatever

since that shows me both devices in the output of "mount", reminding me
and anyone else trying to figure out what's going on with this machine
that both devices are involved in this filesystem.
