[linux-next] Read-only file system after boot (powerpc)

With recent version of linux-next builds on IBM Power servers,
depending on file system used I have observed the file system is either
mounted read-only(ext4) or kernel fails to reach login prompt (with XFS).
In both cases following messages are seen during boot:

[    4.379474] sd 0:0:1:0: [sda] tag#25 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_OK cmd_age=0s
[    4.379479] sd 0:0:1:0: [sda] tag#25 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
[    4.379483] sd 0:0:1:0: [sda] tag#25 Add. Sense: Invalid field in cdb
[    4.379487] sd 0:0:1:0: [sda] tag#25 CDB: Write(10) 2a 08 00 db d7 36 00 00 01 00
[    4.379490] critical target error, dev sda, sector 115259824 op 0x1:(WRITE) flags 0x69800 phys_seg 1 prio class 0

I first thought these might be due to failed drives, but started seeing them
on several servers. I have attached linux boot log (boot.log) for reference.

git bisect points to following commit:
