Alright, summarizing this so far, we have the following fixes landed in Groovy:

udev (systemd pkg):

- 60-persistent-storage.rules: skip_bcache_fs_type:
  - /dev/disk/by-uuid/_ and /dev/disk/by-label/_ not created for bcache devs

Since it does not make sense to have the caching device symlink like if it was a regular filesystem disk to be used:

(k)rafaeldtinoco@bcache:~$ ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 Jul 21 18:49 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 140 Jul 21 17:39 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 21 17:39 022E-07E1 -> ../../vda1

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 21 17:39 67993d4f-fa55-49b1-886e-c692f88393ba -> ../../vda2

- 69-bcache.rules:
  - if any other driver - than bcache - touches /dev/bcache[0-9]*
    bcache/by-uuid/_ (BCACHE_CACHED_UUID and LABEL) symlinks are
    recreated.

To address the udev event responsible for wiping /dev/bcache/by-uuid, like:
