Mayby I'm not kernel expert yet, but IMVHO it looks like hardware (hard 
drive) problem. 
You could do some tests on this drive using programs like badblocks or 
similar. I have problem like that and in this case it was hardware 
problem (drive had guarantee, and manufactor replaced it, so it had to be broken).
So AFAIK this type of error indicates serious problem with hardware, 
unfortunately.
Is there in logs any other similar messages in the neighbourhood of these, 
you write here?
