invoking sudo blocks to-bcache /dev/sda5 causes output

Will shrink the filesystem (btrfs) by 1048576 bytes
Command ['mount', '-t', 'btrfs', '-o', 'noatime,noexec,nodev', '--', '/dev/sda4', '/tmp/tmp8uo886hz.privmnt'] has failed with status 32
Standard output:

which clearly indicates that /dev/sda4 is used instead of /dev/sda5.

By accident I figured out how blocks work. You definitely need to explain it in README.
