Hi,
I've been using libata-tj for a couple of days and for now it's working
without problem, my SI-3112 is finally working :) Thanks !
How does it work w/o libata-tj?
I've noticed these errors while trying to issue some SMART commands to
the SATA drive :

Your drive/controller causes HSM violation probably while executing a
SMART command (maybe during PIO-in during READ DATA?, maybe we need to
dump feature, too). Can you try 'smartctl -d ata -a /dev/sdx' and
report the result and how the kernel acts during that command?
Also, you've triggered a bug. It should try SRST after HSM violation
not revalidation. I had that code. I must have dropped it somewhere.
Thanks for finding the bug. :)
smartd then entered in a "D" state for some time.
smartd is probably waiting for libata EH.
Please feel free to ask for any relevant additional information...
Can you post full boot dmesg?
