SATA uses the SCSI layer, right? It could then perhaps be these bits in
tip:out-of-tree:

813104e: Revert "[SCSI] simplify scsi_io_completion()"
84db545: Revert "[SCSI] Fix uninitialized variable error in scsi_io_completion"
0eb6038: Revert "[SCSI] Fix error handling for DIF/DIX"
3cd94dd: Revert "[SCSI] scsi_lib: don't decrement busy counters when inserting commands"
c27aed5: Revert "[SCSI] scsi_lib: fix DID_RESET status problems"

i needed these to keep an aic7xxx box from crashing. This regression got
introduced at around 2.6.28-rc1, so it fits the timeframe.
