Title:
  USB performance extremely unstable

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since I upgraded from Trusty to Wily, the USB performance has become
  extremely unstable. Sometimes file transfers were fast, like 1GB in 30
  sec, then most days it is so slow like 1 GB in 20 minutes for no
  reason.

  Here some relevant log lines from the `dmesg` command when I USB is
  plugged in:

  ```
  [  496.912939] usb 4-5: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci

  ```

  these two lines appear in *red*

  ```
  [  498.915930] sd 12:0:0:0: [sdd] No Caching mode page found
  [  498.915934] sd 12:0:0:0: [sdd] Assuming drive cache: write through
  ```

  What can we do here? How can this be investigated and fixed properly?
