I don't know if this is a SATA issue or intel-iommu. Could you guys
please take a look?

Output of `dmesg' command
I have a MSI Z68A-GD80 B3 motherboard and when I try to enable Intel's IOMMU
(kernel booted with intel_iommu=on), integrated Marvell 88SE9128 SATA
controller doesn't work.
To reproduce:
1. Compile and prepare kernel with Intel IOMMU support enabled
(CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU=y).
2. Reboot the computer.
3. Enter BIOS and enable VT-d.
4. Boot the kernel with intel_iommu=on parameter.
Right after boot, kernel reports the following errors (SATA controller is at
0b:00.0):
[ 2.639774] DRHD: handling fault status reg 3
[ 2.639782] DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [0b:00.1] fault addr fff00000
[ 2.639783] DMAR:[fault reason 02] Present bit in context entry is clear
After a while these entries appear:
[ 7.625837] ata14.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xa1)
[ 7.628341] ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)

[ 17.910935] ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)

[ 48.134607] ata14.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xa1)
[ 48.137508] ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)
[ 48.444646] ata14: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310)
When there is a disk connected to the controller it does not work. When there
are none, computer starts normally, apart from the huge lag caused by,
presumably, probing the device.
Since this is the secondary controller on these motherboards, to eliminate
those symptoms you can just plug disk in one of available ports of the built-in
Intel SATA controller and disable Marvell's one using BIOS. The other
work-around, if you need to use eSATA capabilities of the latter, is to disable
VT-d techonology also using BIOS.

Well, the lspci dump in the bugzilla report doesn't show a device w/BDF=0b:00.1;
so, if the SATA device (which is 0b:00.0) is spitting out 0b:00.1 as the source
of any of its DMA packets, the IOMMU will fault on it, since 0b:00.1 didn't
request DMA mappings (0b:00.0 did).
I semi-recall someone else reporting this 'feature' on this list.
Wonder if pci-quirk has to filter this case (0b:00.0 on this system means
map for 0b:00.0 & 0b:00.1 -- ick!)
do another lspci -vvv to ensure that 0b:00.1 wasn't excluded in the list.
if it doesn't exist, then the problem is the SATA device using an unknown/unrecognized
BDF of 0b:00.1
