Got that braindead form-reply again, yet again blaming SAMSUNG'S FAULT
on Linux:

Thank you for contacting Samsung Support regarding your concerns and
inquiries. We apologize for any inconvenience this may be causing you.
Linux is the only operating system that has this issue with the Queued
TRIM. Linux is open source and can be modified by anyone, as such we do
not support the OS. We have seen with other customers that updating your
kernel version to 4.0.5 addresses the issue.


Thank you again for contacting Samsung Support and have a good day.

Time to re-send the message with *zero* mention of the word TRIM,
because maybe they've got a trigger for the support-monkeys to auto-
suggest using this response when "queued trim" is mentioned.

Bug description:
  Hi,
  after updating Samsung SSD 840 EVO to the latest firmware (EXT0DB6Q) the fstream command doesn't work anymore. Besides, there are a lot of file system errors and "bad sectors" reports. The problem is certainly caused by Samsung's firmware but I reported it as a bug because in Windows TRIM works normally after the upgrade. I have attached an image uploaded by a user who is experiencing the same problem. If you execute the command "sudo fstrim /" the  console gets stuck. If you add that command in rc.local the boot is compromised. I really hope this problem could be solved.
  Thanks
