I would like to thank everyone involved in getting these patches
mainlined. Bcache should now be stable on the following releases:

mainline: 4.5-rc1 (and later)
longterm: 4.1.18
longterm: 3.18.27

Please test on your favorite branch and let us know how it goes.

For those working from another branch, please see:
git log 2ef9ccbf~1..627ccd20

and cherry-pick with
git cherry-pick 2ef9ccbf~1..627ccd20

Cheers,
