I'm suggesting not using discard on any of them to try and narrow down the problem. Something is turning on discards for sdc2, find it and don't use it for a while. > How do I deactivate discard then? > These drives are spinning disks.

But if sdc2 is a HDD then the sync discard message isn't related to the problem, but also makes me wonder why something is enabling sync discards on a HDD? Anway I think you're on the right track to try 5.11.11 and if you experience a hang again, use sysrq+w and that will dump the blocked task trace into dmesg. Also include a description of the workload at the time of the hang, and recent commands issued. -- Chris Murphy
