This probably mean you have controller driver issue. Some controllers have known bugs with certain kernels and drivers.
You can resolve this by disabling NCQ (Native Command Queuing) as followed :
Shell
1
echo 1 > /sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth
[Replace sdX with the involved device name (ie; sda)]
NOTE : To verify if NCQ is currently enabled, simply do :
Shell
1
cat /sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth
If the returned value is higher than “1”, then it mean NCQ is enabled.
To enable NCQ, just do :
Shell
1
echo 31 > /sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth
