Title:
  Incompatible with Marvell's SATA controllers 9123 with an SSD attached

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My controller is a marvell 9123 and the SSD is a Corsair Neutron
  240GB. The drive is brand new and because I thought it was a drive
  issue, I exchanged it against an other brand new one at my retailers.
  So the drive isn't the issue.

  First install went fine, but when I tried to install some packages
  using apt, the / file system got mounted read only. I tried to
  reinstall and got the same issue during installation.

  WORKAROUND: Disabled NCQ by adding "libata.force:noncq" to default
  kernel options of the installer.

  After the install, I added "libata.force=7:noncq" in /etc/default/grub like this:
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash libata.force=7:noncq"

  and updated grub. I used "7:" because errors I saw occurred with ata7
  info in dmesg.
