Tejun asked Mark to add a printk, and Mark added it directly to the
patch.  Mark, just apply the original patch as-is, and then add the
printk to the source code in ata_piix.c.  You should add it somewhere
like the piix_init_one function, e.g. right before the "Save IOCFG"
comment around line 1575.
