Without answering your specific question, just remember that sata_mv is
considerly "highly experimental" right now, and still needs some
workarounds for hardware errata.
For now, the goal is a system that doesn't crash and doesn't corrupt
data. If its occasionally slow or spits out a few errors, but otherwise
still works, that's pretty darned good :)
I'm currently working with the original authors of sata_mv, and have taken
over maintenance of it for now. It should progress from "highly experimental"
to "production quality" over the next month or so.
The (mucho) updated driver I'm using here now is already much improved
in many ways. At some point, I'll break it out into patches for Jeff.
But there's one MAJOR bugfix patch that I'll release here shortly,
to go with the interrupt handler fix already posted.
Cheers
