This may be paranoia, but:

If I'm reading the code right (I may well not be), you seem to be 
evaulating _GTF before _SDD. The spec (9.9.1.1) claims that _SDD should 
be evaulated before _GTF - we had a couple of bug reports against an 
earlier version of the patch that may have been due to that, but I never 
had a chance to chase them down properly.

You are right, that was happening.  this patch fixes the issue:

Subject: libata: change order of sdd/gtf execution

Make the sdd call come before gtf.  _SDD is used to provide
input to the _GTF file, so it should be executed first.
