This patch export dc->backing_dev_name to sysfs file /sys/block/bcache<?>/bcache/backing_dev_name, then people or user space tools may know the backing device name of this bcache device. Of cause it can be done by parsing sysfs links, but this method can be much simpler to find the link between bcache device and backing device.
