As Chris mentioned, check out the Bug report here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93581


I have a 8TB SMR Drive and the kernel was reporting drive errors.
Switching to Kernel 3.16 (Standard Debian Jessie kernel) fixed it for me
( for the moment).

>From what I read in that kernel bug report. The patch has been submitted
for kernel 4.4.
