Please only apply one of the patches (either Greg's or mine).

Yes looking good. Note that there was an issue with my patch:
http://ns.spinics.net/lists/linux-ide/msg41438.html (see the whole thread).

The issue should not be a problem as long as you use AHCI (but will probably result in a crash if you use IDE and do a standby/resume cycle).

I'll update the patch here. Unfortunately, people on the linux-ide list don't seem too happy about the patch, although there are no other requests to revise it.

Yes, the controller is in AHCI mode now. You can easily confirm by:
# lspci | grep AHCI
