Title:
  kernel fails to boot from SSD on non AHCI chipset (NCQ unsupported)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 16.04 64bits WON'T BOOT from a SSD Kinsgton Savage (2016) on chipset ASUS M2N68-AM SE (2010) with non-AHCI SATA2
  SATA Settings: 32 bit transfers: ENABLED,  AHCI mode: not available.
  Fresh installed system FREEZES inmediatly after starting to boot, PC looses its video signal.
  kern.log does not register anything.

  This motherboard does not support AHCI, but the SSD does.  Fresh
  installed 16.04 kernel does not disable NCQ (AHCI).

  Same system will slowly boot with errors when disabling 32 Bit transfers from BIOS, and freeze.
  Same PC boot ubuntustudio 12.04 live usb automatically disabling NCQ when SSD is connected.
  SAME SSD WILL BOOT without erros on chipset Intel Pinetrail-M with SATA3 and AHCI.
  (Same SSD and both PC boot fresh Windows 10 in sixteen seconds without any issue.)

  Other tests:
  SATA Settings: 32 BIT TRANSFER: DISABLED, AHCI: not available.
  System boots from SSD with ATA errors and taking some minutes when it should take some seconds.
  Kernel DOES NOT disable NCQ after failing (it does on 12.04 live, same PC)
  System becomes definetly unresponsive a few minutes after start up, mouse pointer still moves but does not respond to clicks, and PC has to be hard reset.
  (In the posterior boot, system cleans some orphan inodes for one of the dm-crypt volumes)

  ANOTHER TESTS:
  Ubuntu 16.04 64bits boot from SSD in a 2012 Intel Pinetrail-M with SATA3 ports, AHCI, and common BIOS. (non UEFI)
  SATA Settings:  AHCI mode: extended,  AHCI extension: enabled,  32 bit transfers: enabled OR disabled.
  System boots normally from SSD without any errors.

  ...

  Then kernel finish booting and system works perfectly on Pine Trail M.

  I will try to disable NCQ by parameter in the kernel run command, as M2N68AM-SE is my everyday-work PC.
