Had a chance to play with this some more, but still not getting it to
work...

Formatting seems to work, and once I do this:

  echo /dev/sdd1 > /sys/fs/bcache/register
  echo /dev/nvme0n1 > /sys/fs/bcache/register
  echo 1 > /sys/fs/bcache/<set-uuid>/blockdev_volume_create

a /dev/bcache0 has been created. However, if I try to mount it:

  mount -t bcache /dev/bcache0 /mnt

it says:

  mount: No such file or directory

with a return code of 32, which is documented as "mount failure".

At this point I reach the limit of my current understanding, but would
like to understand more.

Thanks,

-Martin
