Andre Hedrik has put together a site with exactly this intention, check out:
http://linuxdiskcert.org/
Of course, there's a lot of hard work between here and having a useful database, but, hey, well begun and all that...
According to Andre:
"the requirements are they apply a patch run a series of tests and then I will submit to the OEM for rebutal and if there is no resolution the drive and the test procedure on how to reproduce the error will be posted"
