If you send me a patch - my experience on hacking on the kernel is
exactly 0 - I'll try to see if I can compile a custom kernel and get
it running.

Done.

I did some more testing - I copied an image of a 128GB drive over the
network (via netcat) onto the bcache/btrfs system and verified the
results twice using sha1sum. They're both identical on the source
system (which is *not* using bcache) and bcache/btrfs setup. I've
gotten a lot of the incomplete write errors and a few csum erros in
dmesg, but apparently they haven't done any harm?

Not sure how remarkable this is, as these kinds of things are supposed
to bypass the cache anyway, but I assume they still have to go through
the subsystem.
