Hi,
Unfortunately because of buggy upstream support for my hardware (Dell XPS 13 9343) I often have to force reboot using Magic Sysrq Keys (REISUB). In fact I have quite a few hangs, also the majority of times I am not able to shutdown without relying on REISUB. There are obviously times when even REISUB do not work (kernel is completely unresponsive), but the vast majority of times it works. What I do not understand is why Magic Sysrq Keys leave me with a damaged filesystem: shouldn't an emergency SYNC + read only remount be enough to secure my data? After rebooting with REISUB my system often complains about "read only" files and if I "stat" them I get "weird file". I often loose some of my desktop settings like the plasmoids I had on the desktop or my favourite applicatios I had in the menu, but what's even stranger is that I often magically recover them later, while doing exactly NOTHING to recover them. This behaviour scares me so much that I'm thinking about switching to another fs if I will not find a solution very soon.

The disk seems fine: https://bpaste.net/show/822d4b4ff902
