That would seem like a board-specific problem, as I have an Asus
P7P55D PRO board with the same JMicron controller and I don't see any
such errors. The JMicron BIOS isn't enabled.
The behavior here is strange, the controller reports a connection
status change interrupt with CommWake which should indicate that some
device completed the handshake with the controller, but then the SATA
link shows down. I assume there's nothing plugged into the two JMicron
SATA ports?
