Subject: WARNING at libata-core.c:5015 in 2.6.39-rc3-wl+, then lockup.

This on an multi-core Atom based appliance.  Using SSD for hard-drive.
Fedora 14 OS.

2.6.39-rc* has been very flaky for me on this system (haven't tried other
machines yet), and I'm pretty sure I saw similar bugs on earlier 39-rc kernels though
they often crashed on other things as well...

I can provide more info as needed.

This is the warning that hits...
	/*
	 * We guarantee to LLDs that they will have at least one
	 * non-zero sg if the command is a data command.
	 */
	if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ata_is_data(prot) &&
			 (!qc->sg || !qc->n_elem || !qc->nbytes)))
		goto sys_err;

After the warning and the errors below, the system locks hard.
The same system works fine on 2.6.38 kernels.
