[Bug 1886206] [NEW] os-prober fails to reload ioctl on a bcache device

[ed20900]

Public bug reported:

Every time a new kernel is installed or GRUB is updated, the message
"device-mapper: reload ioctl on osprober-linux-nvme0n1p4  failed"
appears. The partition is used by bcache as caching device. The backing
device does not report any error.

lsblk output:
