Subject: ata link not reset properly

>From time to time this nVidia SATA controller chokes on a FLUSH CACHE.

1. why does the kernel not try to HARD reset the link?
2. it would be nice to have the possibility to manually force a (hard) reset or
to re-initialize the device. Other than rebooting I mean :-)

Thanks.

Kernel is basically a 2.6.32.8 with a cherry picked fix:
