Under ubuntu 15.10 I can't use my Sandisk ultra 64GB microSD (with a SD card adapter) with the built in SD card reader. I seem to be getting the following errors.

It was working fine under vivid with kernel 3.19.

Went through all the kernels from 3.19 to 4.2 (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/) and found out that until 4.1.8-040108-generic the SD card reader would play fine and only after I put 4.1.9 and on I started getting the errors.
