sata_sil.c 2.4.27 timeout

["Bryan Heitman" <bryanh@fusemail.com>]

linux kernel 2.4.27 w/ built-in sil image driver
Supermicro: SuperServer 6013P-T
Supermicro motherboard: Super X5DPR-TG2+

I have 4 x SATA Western Digital 1600 drives installed on a new box.  First
drive has 8 gig ext3, 4 gig swap, and rest reiserfs, the remaining drives
have a 160GB reiser partition.

When accessing multiple drives (>2) under moderate load we receive dma
timeouts and ultimately disk lockups until reboot.  Here is a timeout &
dump:

Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated, I am shipping
an identical box overnight to the Equinix Ashburn datacenter tonight to
alleviate other unrelated hardware problems, hoping I can rely on it :)
