Did you try both patches together? Both are required for the solution.

Thanks for updating the patch Jeff. I see you spotted the reason why I didn't put the code into sil_freeze. I tested your patch and it prevented the kernel panic. I now get the following output, which seems to be correct to me.

WARNING: at drivers/ata/libata-core.c:5209 ata_qc_complete()

hum, my patch would indeed trigger this WARN_ON_ONCE() in ata_qc_complete():

if (ap->ops->error_handler) {
struct ata_device *dev = qc->dev;
struct ata_eh_info *ehi = &dev->link->eh_info;

WARN_ON_ONCE(ap->pflags & ATA_PFLAG_FROZEN);

Tejun, was that WARN_ON() originally added to detect spurious callers? Or, completions after the EH started?

AFAICS, libata still owns the qc's at this point, so it should not be a problem to complete them when the port is frozen.
