possible esata regression in 2.6.35
From: Nicolas Jungers

My arm box doesn't succeed to use my esata port multiplier (addonics
sil3726 based). It was working well with 2.6.34.1 and 2.6.34.4 but not
with both 2.6.35.2 and 2.6.35.3. I haven't test other kernels.
The kernels are from http://sheeva.with-linux.com/sheeva/ with for
example the following config
http://sheeva.with-linux.com/sheeva/2.6.35.3/sheeva-2.6.35.3.config
The symptoms are in the console a loop on the esata links. Here is the
start of it:
ata2: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4010000 action 0xe frozen
ata2: edma_err_cause=00000010 pp_flags=00000000, dev connect
ata2: SError: { PHYRdyChg DevExch }
