Ahh, ok, it's not sata_nv at all then, it's pata_amd. On the same chip, 
totally different controller though.

PATA doesn't normally use hard-resets as a means of error recovery - 
that would mean hitting the RESET line, which I don't think most 
controllers can do on software command (it usually only gets asserted on 
power up or hitting the reset button), unlike on SATA where there's a 
defined way to trigger a COMRESET which is mostly equivalent. Also, that 
resets both devices on the channel, unlike soft reset which is specific 
to one device.
