Ted, you are right that the problem may be anywhere, but since Tejun's
patch fixes it, I decided to not spend time on testing without AC power
cuts.

But I checked and on of my boxes uses an HDD, and it shows the same
problem, which makes the theory of imperfect SSD firmware being
involved less likely.
