Title:
  [4.4][backport] Multiple partitions are not supported on a bcache
  device

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Support for adding partitions on bcache devices only landed in 4.10:

  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=b8c0d911ac5285e6be8967713271a51bdc5a936a

  Although it is a small change, it is not backported to any of the
  xenial kernels and it only exists naturally in 4.10.

  This will prevent usage of multiple partitions on the same device
  which is the case when data and journal are collocated.

  Also, the lack of that feature prevents dmcrypt usage as multiple
  partitions are created on a device in this case.

  
  Could that be backported to the 4.4 kernel?
