This last is an interesting datapoint.

I wonder if libata has a generic problem with NCQ + FLUSH CACHE.

What happens if you enable the 'fua' module parameter? (libata.fua on kernel command line, if built in)

it isn't supported here:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA

Did you actually try my suggestion?

That message is normal, because libata defaults to FUA==off.
