[snip] After the mvsas update in 2.6.35 this started happening to me as well; at least its better than the previous state - not working.. ;-) However, after rolling a new 2.6.35 with the following fix that is queued up for the upcoming 2.6.35 and 2.6.36 stable releases, they seem to have dissapeared - 3 days and counting. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=blob_plain;f=queue-2.6.33/libsas-fix-ncq-mixing-with-non-ncq.patch;h=b6d7c92094d95ad67a3b23c2e09c25d4fbd0f46b;hb=HEAD The fix is queued up for the next 2.6.36 and 2.6.35 stable point-releases.
