I have the same problem on Thinkpad X1 Carbon 5th gen with NVMe drive. I
get read-only rootfs every time I suspend my laptop (e.g. by closing the
laptop's lid).

Things were fine under Ubuntu Xenial 16.04. Once I upgraded to the
latest LTS 18.04 the problem started. I was using the toshiba NVMe drive
(256GB). Then I upgraded to the following drive (samsung ssd 970 evo
500GB) however the problem persisted:

I tried different kernels. 4.15.18 , 4.20.17 , 5.1.15. 
Currently on:
 4.15.18-041518-generic #201804190330 SMP Thu Apr 19 07:34:21 UTC 2018 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


None seem to fix it. 

I tried the suggested solution by setting nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us= 
to 5500, 200, and 0
Currently using:
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0

APST is now disabled:

# nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0 
get-feature:0xc (Autonomous Power State Transition), Current value:00000000
        Autonomous Power State Transition Enable (APSTE): Disabled
        Auto PST Entries        .................
        Entry[ 0]   
        .................
        Idle Time Prior to Transition (ITPT): 0 ms
        Idle Transition Power State   (ITPS): 0


The problem persists however.... As soon as I close the lid  / suspend the 
laptop, it won't recover from this suspend, instead it hangs with the black 
screen with 

EXT4-fs error (device nvme0n1p2) : I/O error while writing superblock
and so on...


Is there any solution to this yet?

Thanks
