Hugh, looks you are right person to ask per https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/23/9
What can I do now with my system? Is it so that for unknown reason (misinterpreted ACPI condition?) /dev/sdb was stopped by SandyBridge and after an hour when shell redirects of valgrind's STDOUT and STDERR to a file filled up some kernel buffers (because could not write to /mnt/external) the ext4 driver choked? # cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode 0 # Have app-laptop/laptop-mode-tools-1.63-r2 on Gentoo Linux.
