Mike Fleetwood 5d86c616a8 Report busy status of bcache (#183)
Make (format as) bcache backing device (-B) and cache device (-C) and
implicitly attach the backing device to the cache to enable caching, all
in one.
    # bcache make -B /dev/sdb1 -C /dev/sdc1
    # bcache show
    Name        Type        State            Bname     AttachToDev
    /dev/sdb1   1 (data)    clean(running)   bcache0   /dev/sdc1
    /dev/sdc1   3 (cache)   active           N/A       N/A

After experimenting with 'bcache unregister', 'bcache register' and
stracing 'bcache show' the bcache kernel module creates the sysfs
directory /sys/block/DEV[/PTN]/bcache and it's contents only when the
bcache device is registered with the kernel (bcache component is
active).  Use this to identify whether any bcache device (component)
should be displayed as active or not in GParted.
    # ls -ld /sys/block/sd?/sd?1/bcache
    drwxr-xr-x. 6 root root 0 Jan  7 10:08 /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/bcache
    drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 0 Jan  7 10:08 /sys/block/sdc/sdc1/bcache

Closes #183 - Basic support for bcache
