Subject: Re: ext4 file system corruption with v4.19.3 / v4.19.4

After upgrading my kernel to 4.19 I got a corruption on nearly every
reboot or resume from suspend on my Acer s7-391 [UEFI boot].

Going to my UEFI setup and changing IDE mode from IDE to ATA seems to
have resolved the issue for me.

Don't know, though, if that is a valid data point or if it was a mere
accident (tested only on one computer) or just avoids the Bad Timing by
a few nanoseconds....
