I've now done this, swapping in a Highpoint R620. I get the same
IO_PAGE_FAULT, same timeouts on the sata card, but lspci now shows up the
device 03:00.1. I've put the new dmesg and lspci output at

  http://cdw.me.uk/tmp/sata-fault-hpt.dmesg
  http://cdw.me.uk/tmp/sata-fault-hpt.lspci

Again, problem is present both with 2.6.32.25 and 2.6.37.

Cheers,

Chris.
