Title:
  Marvell SATA Controller. Problem booting and detecting HDDs in kernel
  3.2.0.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  While HDDs conected to my SB950 controller are detected, ones
  connected to the Marvell 88SE9172 Controller are not, also causing a
  significant delay in boot times. This was also present previously when
  when I used kernel 3.0.0 in LinuxMint 12. The affected drives are
  still able to be booted from and recognized within Windows 7.

  ## dmesg results for delayed period:
  [    6.908078] ata9: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
  [    6.908948] ata9.00: failed to IDENTIFY (INIT_DEV_PARAMS failed, err_mask=0x80)

  I'm having a similar issue to bug #260543, "JMicron SATA Controller.
  Problem booting with kernel 2.6.24-19. Boots fine with kernel
  2.6.22-14"  [
