A Samsung 860 SSD that I have is the worst (compared to a dozen non-Samsung
ones) when it comes to TRIM, NCQ, combination thereof, and compatibility with
various SATA controllers.

However it should be noted that while the commit referenced is not in the
mainline kernel anymore, a narrower blacklist applying to 840 and 850 models
currently is [1]. And as the report is about the 850 Pro, queued TRIM should
not have been the cause, as is already blacklisted in kernel for all "Samsung
SSD 850". Can check in 'dmesg' for a note about it shortly after the SSD
detection to confirm.
