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

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.
