I've seen a similar problem on a bug report recently for a Crucial SSD,
and upgrading the disk's firmware fixed the problem:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49701

If the controller has problem, it should have problems for all kinds of
disks attached to it. So possible to test with other disks, Jiri?

Hope this helps.
