Have you got your config as follows:
CONFIG_MCA=y CONFIG_SCSI_IBMMCA=y CONFIG_IBMMCA_SCSI_ORDER_STANDARD=y # CONFIG_IBMMCA_SCSI_DEV_RESET is not set
If you set CONFIG_IBMMCA_SCSI_DEV_RESET some machines don't like it.
I have an 8556 and 2.2.0-pre8 works just fine with this config.

Some Model 56s are 8556 others 9556. There are also IBM disks for the 8556:
rd855657.exe rf855657.exe
but I think the 9556 disks work on 8556 as well.
