I have tried your tree and it does not clobber the HBA anymore, however
partitions (of the MS-DOS type) are not recognised with any of the disks
including one holding the root device, so the system fails to mount the
root filesystem and therefore does not complete booting:
VFS: Cannot open root device "802" or unknown-block(8,2): error -6
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
0800 17921835 sda
driver: sd
0810 35843686 sdb
driver: sd
0830 239816 sdd
driver: sd
0b00 1048575 sr0
driver: sr
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,2)
-- is that expected?
Here's the relevant part of the boot log:

while upon a succesful boot with the upstream kernel (and my patch(es)
applied) it looks like:

The failure is not specific to this HBA as `hdd' is a PATA device and it
doesn't get its partitions scanned either.
