Public bug reported:

There's a scary issue with fstrim on raid0 and raid10 mdadm devices. It
is fixed upstream in linux/4.1.5-1, linux/3.16.7-ckt17-1, but I can't
find anything in the changelogs for ubuntu.

Here's the links:

I did my amateur analysis by extracting sources for current trusty
kernel 3.13.0-65-generic and current trusty-lts-utopic 3.16.0-50-generic
and looking at files referenced in patches from the Martin K. Petersen's
email, and it appears that 3.16 already has this fix included, and 3.13
is a completely different code base, so it isn't clear whether it is
affected or not.

I've disabled fstrim in cron until I understand the situation better.

Could someone knowledgeable chime in on the status of this on Ubuntu,
specifically Trusty and after?
