Hello,
These patches update the bcache superblock format so that backing device data can be at an arbitrary offset from the start of the backing device; this helps convert partitions or logical volumes to bcache in-place, and <https://github.com/g2p/blocks> has been updated to use the new format.

The kernel half is on top of bcache-for-upstream, the bcache-tools half is on top of the development version of bcache-tools. They can be pulled from
- https://github.com/g2p/linux/tree/bcache-for-upstream
- https://github.com/g2p/bcache-tools/tree/enable-data-offset

#1 lore raw

PATCH 1/1 bcache: Take data offset from the bdev superblock.

Add a new superblock version, and consolidate related defines.
