Subject: e-SATA ExpressCard - OOPS plus incrementing "ataX" on Linux-2.6.xx

Hi,

I just buy an e-SATA ExpressCard and trying on my notebook. It's able
to see the external SATA harddisk. On initial boot, I'm seeing the
following OOPS.

A second problem relating to the ExpressCard is ejecting and inserting
the card. Every time I do so, I'm seeing the new card occupying a new
"ata" interface. See logs below ...

It looks like it failed to stop the sata interface. Or perhaps I be
asking ... is there a utility to stop the interface before pulling off
the card?

And often, inserting the card does not make the kernel detect the
event that the card has been inserted. I've to try a few times before
seeing any message. I've disabled rsyslog so that it shows repeated
logs.

I'm testing it on Linux-2.6.35-rc2, but I think it's happening on
older versions as well. I'm using CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_ACPI so that it
can detect the hotplug events on my X201s Lenovo notebook.


Thanks,
Jeff
