Well so far I see errors from 4 of my 6 disks since I rebooted 30 hours ago. 
And in the past I've seen these errors come from all disks. I'm more inclined 
to believe its some kind of handling issue than that all of those drives are 
in some way bad. Especially since that older driver I got from Andy Yan did 
not suffer from any of these issues. Of course it had other problems, like 
hotswap oopsing the kernel, but I almost never use hotswap, so it was never an 
issue for me.

Now I'm not sure its related, but I do see this:
[  342.353646] hrtimer: interrupt took 61135 ns
in my dmesg. But that really isn't that long of a pause least not by human 
standards. And theres only the one. It happens once just after boot up, and 
then never again (I assume because at bootup the machine is starting up 4 kvm 
VMs /at the same time/).
