Well, I for one use the 2.2 ide patches extensively (on almost all of my machines, including a heavy-duty backup server), and haven't seen any problems whatsoever. I see _much_ more problems with scsi (aic7xxx), for example.
I don't mean to say the ide patches are 100% bug free, but I wouldn't consider them as the prime suspect for an oops that happened elsewhere either. It could be hw or any other part of kernel just as well... What about memtest86?
