There's is also http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11703, which seems to be heavily related. I think it's actually the same issue, just that in this bug, there's only the bay drive which gets removed, not the whole docking station (which shouldn't matter for libata's resume functions). I'll try to get my hands on a system where I can reproduce this to be able to do sensible debuggin.
