I don't think it would be wise to include the patch for -stable tho.
It's not a regression fix and has some possibility of introducing
regressions, so....
Not a regression fix?  Excuse me?
SATA hotplug always used to work fine,
and is more or less essential to reboot-free operations.
There are two separate patches.  One is a fix which got pushed to
Linus by Jeff early yesterday.  The other changes behavior which has
been like that since the beginning of EH.  The former is marked
properly w/ -stable.  The latter shouldn't be in -stable.
Peachy.  Got links for each of those?
I may try them with the sata_sil board that was having issues earlier.
The fix is

and the behavior change is
