I still see timeouts only on 4 lower ports where disk has also been

hmmmm, that is quite interesting. That seems to indicate something
related to the dual-HC mechanism (8-port cards are really two 4-port
chips internally)...

Yup. As I just noted on the redhat bugzilla entry,
this bug only bites when drives are attached to *both*
the lower and upper halves of the chip.
The second patch fixes that problem.
Once we hear back again from some affected users,
I'll reissue it for upstream/backstream.
Thanks
