I confirmed that I'm using the patched mdadm, but it still doesn't seem to
recognise the magic.
As I can see the problem could be in mdadm which can recognize mbr superblock
if partition table exists on disk, and then uses load_super_mbr() instead of load_bcache().
You can look at guess_super_type() function in util.c file. See log below.
I've attached small patch, which I used to find out where issue is.
Btw, I've not idea why getinfo_super() for imsm and bcache set info.array.ctime always to 0.
Probably it should be fixed also because this value is used by guess_super_type() function.
rv = ss->load_super(st, fd, NULL);
if (rv == 0) {
struct mdinfo info;
st->ss->getinfo_super(st, &info, NULL);
if (bestsuper == -1 ||
besttime < info.array.ctime) {
bestsuper = i;
besttime = info.array.ctime;
}
ss->free_super(st);
}

To workaround this issue I've destroyed partition table on /dev/sdb,
and now mdadm can examine bcache superblock correctly.
