[Users] Bcache missing from OpenVZ 7

I was using 3.10.0-327.36.1.vz7.18.8 which is the latest one in the 
updates repo here: 
https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/updates/7.0/x86_64/os/Packages/v/

I'm guessing the factory repo contains the bleeding edge packages?  I 
couldn't find much info on that repo.

In any case, the factory's kernel 3.10.0-514.6.1.vz7.28.4 did include 
bcache.  For other users, it was:

yum update vzkernel vzkernel-headers --enablerepo=factory

However, if factory are instable packages, other users may wish to hold 
off.

Regards,
Devon
