I haven't tested it, but would this be related? http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/30055 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9491

"ata_piix when attached to ICH6M in AHCI mode doesn't provide any
benefit over using ahci and has detection problems. Don't let
ata_piix claim ICH6M if it's in AHCI mode.

This change makes ICH6R the only one which ata_piix can attach to even
when it's in ahci mode which is necessary as some devices don't work
properly under ahci mode. Drop PIIX_FLAG_AHCI and match the
controller directly so that piix_disable_ahci() is called only for it.

This change makes PIIX_SCC no longer used and it gets dropped too.

This fixes bz 9491."
