Re: possible esata regression in 2.6.35

I can reproduce the problem on uptsream-linux using a PC with Marvell
7042 controller and Sil3726 PMP. Without the SIl3726, it works fine.

What I can see on the SATA analyzer [I will send clean trace tomorrow]
is the disk send the DATA FIS back to the PMP, but the PMP does not
manage to have the data accepted by the host.

Non data commands work fine.

In dmesg:
