I'm trying to use a Marvell 88SX5081 based card here in my pegasos machine,

provided (and 2.6.16 though, maybe i should update to a newer version). The
marvell provided driver worked though at some time.
Would it be possible to have access to your work, in order to not duplicate
effort or something ?
All of the relevant bits of "my work" are now in Jeff's upstream libata tree,
from the recently posted sata_mv patches.
After struggling with bad SDRAM earlier this week, I now have Ubuntu installed
and running reliably on my G3 box here. Next step is to upgrade the kernel
to something modern, and add in the latest sata_mv.
After that, I'll try my own 6081 Marvell card in it, and hopefully see the
same failures as you.. hopefully!
Cheers
