2.6.15.4: Can't get running id for drives on ite8212 controller

[CaT]

# hdparm -I /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Input/output error

No SMART access either. This is a ST3200822A drive hanging off an
IT/ITE8212 controller. Linux kernel is 2.6.15.4 and dmesg spits out:

[1683890.974231] hda: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[1683890.974243] hda: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }

hdparm version is: hdparm v6.1

Now I've never had a drive not be able to give me something for -I so
I'm thinking that this is not quite cricket. Other drives on the
controller are:

/dev/hdc: SAMSUNG SV1022D
/dev/hdd: QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 10

and they all fail in the same manner.

AFAIK I'm not using it in RAID mode and this is what it spat out at
startup:
