Hello Christoph,
to be clear :
my JMicron pcie card JMB363/368 has 2 sata ports and one IDE port,
JMicron supports AHCI on these 2 sata ports,
my gigabyte motherboard has 4 sata ports and one IDE port, my gigabyte
motherboard doesn't support AHCI on these 4 sata ports ( my bios seems
to treats sata devices like IDE devices, a kind of "IDE emulation mode" ),
the bug doesn't occur if the Sata DVD burner is not mixed with a hard
disk on the Sata ports ( motherboard sata ports ),
the configuration who triggers the bug is mixing a slow device ( sata
dvd burner ) with a fast device ( sata harddisk ) on the sata ports of
the motherboard ( who doesn't support AHCI ),
the bug doesn't occur if the sata dvd burner is connected on a JMicron
pcie card because there is no other sata harddisks connected on this
JMicron, I connect only a IDE hardidsk on this JMicron pcie card and
also this Sata dvd burner in order to avoid the bug ( it's a workaround ),
2 pata_jmicron = the IDE port in this JMicron pcie card ( master and slave )
4 ata_piix = 4 sata ports from the gigabyte motherboard, this ports
doesn't support AHCI
2 ahci = 2 sata ports in this JMicron pcie card
but another user has the same problem but with an IDE DVD burner ( mixed
with an IDE hardidsk ) :

this user has tested your patch and it solves the bug
