Subject: Bug report

SATA for kernel(s) 3.5+ has an issue with IRQ Balancing on AMD SB710
with motherboard ASRock m3a770d3.

The problem started while using Arch linux, after going back to Debian
it persisted. I had tried to find problems with the bug but couldn't
find any direct help online. I had a break when finding similar bugs
on other sites stating that IRQ Balancing might be the fault. So I
tried ACPI_IRQ_NOBALANCE in the kernel boot parameters and so far the
issue has stopped.

Linux version 3.6.0-rc2 (mboy@debian) (gcc version 4.7.1 (Debian
4.7.1-6) ) #1 SMP Sat Aug 18 00:46:06 CDT 2012

After it would reset, it would try SATA I, fail, then mount the drive
as RO. I'm running a Phenom II on Debian Wheezy with a bit of Sid,
don't have the time at the moment to get a better grasp on what you
need for a proper bug report but I hope this helps.
