This is certainly possible.  The 6121 has a PATA port, and can be used
with the sata_mv driver also.

I assume you're talking about setting hw_sata_spd_limit to 1.5Gbps so
that sata_down_spd_limit() doesn't do anything?  That will work, but
it would still be nice to be able to run at 3.0Gbps on these ports.

If anyone has any more elegant solutions they would like me to test,
just let me know.
