hmmmm. Looking at changes between the two csets listed in the email (623fa57..8f616cd), all of them are driver-specific and unrelated to Manny's hardware except for

libata: update atapi disable handling

So you could try to revert that and see what happens. But given that small range of changes, it really seems like something else, maybe in the PCI subsystem (random guess).

Looking at the entire kernel, nothing jumps out, either. Its mostly fs updates (ext4, xfs), a networking update, an ARM update, and a libata update.

Also, some reset-related fixes just went in, so re-testing the latest -git would be helpful as well.
