Yeap, this one is the offending one.  0xf74ccd98 got requeued in front
of pre-flush while draining and when it finished it didn't complete
draining thus hanging the queue.  It seems like it's some kind of
special request which probably fails and got retried.  Are you using
SMART or something which issues special commands to drives?


No SMART, although I should be (rebuilt the system a few months ago..and must
have missed it).

Are there any other things which could be contributing to this? <scratches head>

Could this be hdparm or something tweaking the drive write cache settings, etc?
