Bjørn Forsman 9037126df0 bcache-tools: new package
Bcache is a Linux kernel block layer cache. It allows one or more fast
disk drives such as flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) to act as a
cache for one or more slower hard disk drives.

This package contains the required user-space tools.

User documentation is in Documentation/bcache.txt in the Linux kernel
tree.
