I'm seeing the same here since a few days. Before it worked great (even with NCQ). I've been getting those messages since 2.6.21-rc3-mm1 and with the latest Ubuntu feisty kernel (2.6.20-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Mar 15 03:43:56 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

System is Athlon64 X2, Nforce4, 3x Samsung SATA II NCQ discs.

Can you try 2.6.21-rc4? There was a change that went in between rc3 and rc4 to revert a previous change which seemed to be problematic.

As far as 2.6.20, I'm somewhat tempted to submit this patch to -stable:
