Hi,

I noticed following messages appearing very often in my log:

Any idea of what is going on? Is dmesg output needed? The system seesm 
to behave rel normal, beside a bit performance degration, I think.

BTW, the new libata version does two good things:
- write back is activated
- now hdparm -t /dev/sda gives high throughoutput straight form the 
first time.

Cheers,

Prakash
