Firstly, if you have the latest software, I suggest you switch to the
smq cache policy which is generally out performing the old mq policy
substantially.

Secondly, I think you may need to reset your expectations a bit.
dm-cache is a slow moving cache.  It monitors IO, detectings hotspots
on the disk and then 'promotes' those regions to the SSD.  You may
find that the reads that occur during a boot, occur only infrequently
once the system is booted.
