I tagged it onto the obscure IDE report pile. It doesn't contain any
really useful information and its probably not an IDE layer bug as of
itself. But its on the todo list for further investigation and to see if
patterns emerge

Just booted this fresh ata-enabled system (a matter of mkinitrd). It has 
not exploded yet.

No, does not seem so.

Maybe it is solved in 2.6.22.3? (I don't remember what your version 
was.)

Looks more like a platform irq routing issue than an ata issue.

Perhaps an x86 or an acpi person can help out with this.

Probably nothing will happen, in which case I'll get back to you later
and ask you to raise a bugzilla entry, not that this will get it fixed :(

Patrizio, have you tried with the old IDE? (And without suspend at that...)

w.r.t. to suspend problem (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7077):
please try latest -mm kernel, it contains many fixes for sis5513 host driver.

I assume you tried the standard workarounds, like

  pci=nommconf,nomsi
  pci=noacpi
  pci=biosirq

(one at at time, not all at once.)
