Kent, Jens, Christoph et al,
 please see this bugzilla:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109661

where Artem Tashkinov bisected his problems with 4.3 down to commit
b54ffb73cadc ("block: remove bio_get_nr_vecs()") that you've all
signed off on.

(Also Tejun - maybe you can see what's up - maybe that error message
tells you something)

I'm not sure what's up with his machine, the disk doesn't seem to be
anyuthing particularly unusual, it looks like a 1TB Seagate Barracuda:

  ata1.00: ATA-8: ST1000DM003-1CH162, CC44, max UDMA/133

which doesn't strike me as odd.

Looking at the dmesg, it also looks like it's a pretty normal
Sandybridge setup with Intel chipset. Artem, can you confirm? The PCI
ID for the AHCI chip seems to be (INTEL, 0x1c02).

Any ideas? Anybody?

BTW, I have posted very similar issue in the link:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=145066119623811&w=2

Artem, I noticed from bugzillar that the hardware is i386, just
wondering if PAE is enabled?  If yes, I am more confident
that both the two kinds of report are similar or same.


Yes, I'm on i686 with PAE (16GB of RAM here) - it's specifically mentioned in the corresponding bug report.

P.S. I know Linus doesn't condone PAE but I still find it more preferrable than running a mixed environment with almost zero benefit in regard to performance and quite obvious performance regressions related to an increased number of libraries being loaded (i686 + x86_64) and slightly bloated code which sometimes cannot fit in the CPU cache. Call me old fashioned but I won't upgrade to x86_64 until most of the things that I run locally are available for x86_64 and that won't happen any time soon.
