This device appears to have more than one PCI ID. Support for 1b4b:917a was added in the upstream kernel 3.4, and is under review for 3.3 and 3.2 updates, but according to your Lspci.txt file you have 1b4b:9172

See http://theangryangel.co.uk/blog/marvell-88se9172-sata3-under-linux-as-of-320 for info on how to add support manually under kernel 3.2. Note that they have a third PCI ID - make sure you use yours.

Here is the 3.4 kernel patch for reference:

ahci: Detect Marvell 88SE9172 SATA controller

The Marvell 88SE9172 SATA controller (PCI ID 1b4b 917a) already worked
once it was detected, but was missing an ahci_pci_tbl entry.

Boot tested on a Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3 motherboard.
