I would also rise priority, since the issue

- makes it often impossible to shut down the machine cleanly, requiring a hard 
reset which may result in data loss;
- I imagine that it can make it quite hard to install security updates from 
ubuntu as any update of the kernel package tends to result in the system 
hanging at the make initramfs phase, that probably queries all system drives.
