Subject: Regular ext4 error warning with HD in USB dock

Hi all

Since I moved my internal HD into a USB dock externally and mount the ext4 
filesystem on it, I regularly get the following errors after it has been 
mounted for a while (see timecode). It doesn't seem to matter which recent 
kernel I use. 


[1048401.773270] EXT4-fs (sde8): mounted filesystem with writeback data mode. 
Opts: (null)
[1048702.736011] EXT4-fs (sde8): error count: 3
[1048702.736016] EXT4-fs (sde8): initial error at 1289053677: 
ext4_journal_start_sb:251
[1048702.736018] EXT4-fs (sde8): last error at 1289080948: ext4_put_super:719

I've forced an fs check numerous times but nothing comes up. There was only 
one occasion where the filesystem mounted RO but that was months ago and has 
since been fine.

This does not appear to cause any actual problems and happens it seems at 
_precisely_ the moment the hard drive decides to go into sleep mode as I hear 
it spin down. hdparm is unable to extract details from the hard drive when it 
is plugged into the usb dock.

Pointers would be appreciated, even if it's just "it's harmless, ignore it".
