Public bug reported:

Because "ubuntu-bug linux" not works because I am on kernel 3.19.0-17, I
create this report manually.

Summary of problem: we create backups with HyperV of 4 linux virtual
machines. There is 1 CentOS machine (XFS) and 3 Ubuntu 14.04 machines
(EXT4). Problems occur on the Ubuntu machine only and have occurred on
multiple hypervisors (physical machines). During the start or at the end
of the creation of a snapshot, the filesystem switches to read-only
mode. This happens at completely random moments: at least we are not
able to detect a pattern. What we find weird is that the CentOS machine
with XFS is not having any problems.

What actions did we undertake to get rid of problem? We tried multiple
backup strategies with HyperV, including snapshots and exports. When
this was not successful, we were adviced by the #ubuntu-kernel chat
channel to upgrade our kernel to 3.19.0-17 (coming from 3.13.0-52). The
reasons that this could solve the problem is that hyperv backups require
freeze and thaw methods (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-
us/library/aa384589%28v=vs.85%29.aspx). Unfortunately the problem did
not go away.

The message we get from dmesg when the filesystem goes read-only is as
follows on the 3.19.0-17 kernel:

[85630.239889] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 201697672
