I removed DM_WRITECACHE_ONLY_SSD because it wasn't needed, this is the
split out commit that I have since folded in:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/snitzer/linux.git/commit/?h=dm-4.18-writecache-wip&id=e7fd3d1c05659f7e1295178290fbdaebf36becdc

Ross's patch effectively builds ontop of that.
