Subject: Re: btrfs on bcache

After completely loosing my filesystem twice because of this bug, I gave
up using btrfs on top of bcache (also writeback). In my case, I used to
have some subvolumes and some snapshot of these subvolumes, but not many
of them. The btrfs mantra "backup, bakcup and backup" saved me.

Best regards,
