That would be the first thing to check since without interrupts you will not get
any command completion. Commands will timeout and probe will not work.
And this IRQ problem is Xen territory, not ata.

The 1st FIS failed error may be due to some problems with AHCI PCI bar/register
accesses, which may not be working. This I think points again to Xen setup with
domU, which may not have the necessary access rights to get IRQ and PCI bar
accesses ? (I have no experience with Xen)
