Well...
Seconds after my previous message it happened again.
So it seems the upstream kernel does not fix the problem.
I'm adding GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=250"
again.

Title:
Samsung SM961 NVMe SSD randomly unmounts/loses connection/unavailable
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Seems related to these bugs:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1678184
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-signed/+bug/1682704
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1705748
Problem:
At seemingly random times my computer (brand new Lenovo Thinkpad T470) seems
to lose access to the Samsung SM961 256GB SSD drive it has inside. When this
happens the whole OS freezes up and when I try to power down I see a black
terminal-like screen that prints the following errors:
EXT4-fs error (device nvme0n1p2): ext4_find_entry:1431: inode #7471275
(or #741278): comm gmain (or systemd-journal or ...): reading
directory iblock 0
This error seems to be repeated endlessly, though I've only let it go
for a few minutes. No other errors are printed.
This is the only drive it has.
I don't know if this occurs in Windows too since I removed Windows and
installed Ubuntu immediatly after updating the BIOS.

I tried looking for kernel errors with dmesg | grep -i nvme and dmesg
| grep -i EXT4-fs, but nothing of value shows up (only that the drive
was mounted).
What have I tried:
Reading the bug reports mentioned above it seemed that my problem should
already be fixed since I'm on kernel 4.13.
Since I still have the problem, I should be able to temporarily fix it by
setting
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0"
and running sudo update-grub.
This doesn't help however, since I still get random loss of connection to the
drive. Sometimes this happens after minutes of booting, sometimes after hours,
but I haven't been able to run stable for a full day.
I have tried all values for the latency I found in various bug reports
online, specifically I tried: 0, 250, 5500, 6000 and 11000. It seems to run
most stable with 250 and least stable with 0, where the error happens
seconds/minutes after boot.
I'm at my wits' end here. I could just stick a normal SATA SSD in there but
then this brand new one would be a waste. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If more info is needed I'll do my best to provide it.
