ALRU does not have a configurable sleep time between active awakenings
of the cleaning thread. Once it starts cleaning, it does not back off
unless staleness time and/or activity threshold constraints force it
to do so. Wake up time parameter only controls sleep time after
an idle wake up.
Updating casadm help and man page accordingly.

Min seq cutoff threshold value is defined in bytes and if it's lower than
1 KiB, then dividing it by KiB will give 0, which is potentially lower than
the real min value. Use DIV_ROUND_UP() to address this issue.

Since there is no kernel-kernel api available to communicate
with nvme driver it is more convenient to use some nvme-dedicated
software (e.g. nvme-cli) to manage nvme devices.
It is even not possible to format nvme device with CAS using current
implementation on newest kernels.
