Well, as I wrote, I am not the original reporter whoms thread you responded to with your patch. I just thought I could use it to get better errors messages for my bug reports. I am using the sata_mv driver, which is beta. That might explain why it behaves not totally as expected in your eyes. I have no clue anyway :-) I hope my reports are of any use to Jeff wrt the sata_mv driver. Thank you for your response.
