Not sure if this was supposed to also be fixed in bionic-proposed yet,
but I assumed so and
it's not working there;  I'll test -proposed in artful and xenial next.

  3. After creating some bcache devices and rebooting 
/dev/bcache/by-uuid/<UUID> -> ../../bcacheN
  symlinks point to the current bcache device which is caching the dev.uuid 
found after creating a backing device.

  4. /dev/bcache/by-uuid does not exist and there are not symlinks
  underneath

  It appears that since the initramfs loads the bcache module which
  probes and finds all of the cache devices and backing devices then
  once the rootfs is mounted and udev gets to run, the bcache kernel
  module does not emit the CACHED_UUID value into the environment if the
  underlying devices are already registered.

  In dmesg, one can see that prior to mounting the rootfs, we see bcache
  register events:

  [    5.333973] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device vdb2
  [    5.354138] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device vdb4
  [    5.365665] bcache: register_bdev() registered backing device vdb3
  [    5.397720] bcache: bch_journal_replay() journal replay done, 0 keys in 1 
entries, seq 1
  [    5.428683] bcache: register_cache() registered cache device vdb1

  then rootfs ismounted and systemd starts systemd-udev

  [    9.350889] systemd[1]: Listening on udev Kernel Socket.

  And then the coldplug replay of kernel events triggers 
/lib/udev/rules.d/69-bcache.rules
  which invokes /lib/udev/bcache-register which writes the device name 
(/dev/vdb1 or /dev/bcache0) into /sys/fs/bcache/register and results is the 
bcache kernel driver attempting to register the block device.  However, there 
is already a bcache device associated already and registration fails

  [   11.173141] bcache: register_bcache() error opening /dev/vdb2: device 
already registered
  [   11.184617] bcache: register_bcache() error opening /dev/vdb3: device 
already registered
  [   11.199130] bcache: register_bcache() error opening /dev/vdb1: device 
already registered
  [   11.271694] bcache: register_bcache() error opening /dev/vdb4: device 
already registered

  The problem then is that only a kernel call to bch_cached_dev_run()
  which happens like this:

  bcache_register()
    register_bdev()
      bch_cached_dev_run()
        kobject_uevent_env(&disk_to_dev(d->disk)->kobj, KOBJ_CHANGE, env);

  where env includes:
      "DRIVER=bcache",
          kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "CACHED_UUID=%pU", dc->sb.uuid),
          NULL,
          NULL,
      };

  Since that event is not emitted for any previously registered device,
  then the symlink will not be created.
