Yes, will look to backport after it is merged upstream. No ETA for now,
but hoping the upstream merge will happen in the next week or two based
on response from Coly Li [1].

Title:
  Creating bcache backing device using a Dell Ent NVMe CM6 MU 6.4TB
  storage fails with "cannot allocate memory" error

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  # make-bcache -B /dev/nvme4n1
  UUID:                   569e90b3-cc2a-4a0e-a201-476c426a2141

  version:                1
  block_size:             1
  data_offset:            16

  kern.log:
  Apr 12 18:21:56 ... kernel: [  723.854659] bcache: register_bdev() error 
nvme4n1: cannot allocate memory
  Apr 12 18:21:56 ... kernel: [  723.854662] bcache: register_bdev_worker() 
error /dev/nvme4n1: fail to register backing device

  Same error message is mentioned in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1909518, but the
  suggested configuration change does not fix the issue:

  # nvme id-ns /dev/nvme4n1 -n 1 -H |grep "LBA Format"

  Using a Dell Ent NVMe P5800x WI U.2 400GB storage works as expected:

  # make-bcache -B /dev/nvme2n1

  block_size:             8
  data_offset:            16
