The symptom seems very similar to yours but the kernel is 2.6.22 which

update us on how the testing of patched kernel went?
Sorry I didn't realize that you where still waiting for a 'confirm
good'. I intended only to mail, if I got the error again, as the debug
output about SGE_TRM confirmed, that this fix changes the behavior of
sata_sil24 and there was no really 200% sure method of detecting that
this bug was gone.
Anyway, after fixing ata_sg_is_last() by adding the +1 I did not had a
single failure.
I'm currently using 2.6.23-mm1 and 16 boots where all good.
(Apart from the unrelated failure with sata_nv and swncq...)
I see, a different issue then. It's just weird to see similar issues
popping up now after allterm the time sata_sil24 has been around.
What kernel version are we talking about? If it includes sg-chaining
via a git tree somewhere, sata_sil24 has a bug that was just fixed (by
removing ata_sg_is_last).
