I tried to git bisect this problem between 4.17 and 4.18. I used
following command to filter relevant libata.ko and sata_nv.ko modules:
$ git bisect start v4.18 v4.17 -- drivers/ata/libata* drivers/ata/sata_nv.c
And here are results:
sata_nv.ko and libata.ko compiled from commit 804689 (libata: Fix
command retry decision) for 4.17 kernel are working fine.
sata_nv.ko and libata.ko compiled from commit e3ed89 (libata: bump
->qc_active to a 64-bit type) for 4.18 kernel are broken.
So problem seems to be somehow related with introduction of hardware
tags done by Jens Axboe.
