Coly, thank you for your reply. It seems I'll have ot do some more
tests and dive a little into bcache sources when I have time.
Meanwhile, could you please explain what cache_bypass_misses and
cache_bypass_hits mean? It's not obvious from the docs.

I'm using SANDISK Extreme Pro SDSSDXPM2-500G-G25 M.2 NVMe drive and
it's quite common desktop drive, just use native 4K format (nvme-cli)
LBA Format  0 : Metadata Size: 0   bytes - Data Size: 512 bytes -
Relative Performance: 0x2 Good
LBA Format  1 : Metadata Size: 0   bytes - Data Size: 4096 bytes -
Relative Performance: 0x1 Better (in use)

I'm not sure, but I think other drives support this too.

Best regards,
Sergey.
