I have tried the 2.6.31-git2 and this is  the dmesg output :

ibata version 3.00 
loaded.                                                                                            

ahci 0000:00:12.0: version 
3.0

It's correct now.

Thanks very much.

By the way, I was wondering, because I  am a lucky owner of the 
GA-MA69VM-S2 board.
I have  seen it  when I  was trying out the issue with my laptop and 
read the name of the kernel patch.
You will not believe it, on my board with the bios version F8 I do not 
have any issue with the plain 2.6.31 kernel
without patch. 

Thanks again,
Holger
