Indeed.  The delay problem is a more generic kernel/hardware issue.
Ok, I can rather stable reproduce it on 2.6.29-rc6. I want to narrow it,
disabling almost all options in kernel configuration. Could some options
from 'kernel hacking' help me?

Thanks for testing.  Unfortunately none of fixes helped.. :/

This is caused by small mistake in one of fixes, follow-up fixup:

I try this small fix, traces in disappeared, but lost interrupts on the place:)
Some interesting thing from dmesg:

This is don't look good.

[   70.584122]  hdb:<3>ide-pmac lost interrupt, dma status: 8480
DMA status indicates that DMA transfer is still active according to
the controller.  This one is really a platform/hardware specific
issue.
Notes for Ben, I checked only 2.6.26, but may be somebody checked 2.6.24
or this is interpolation.

Thanks,
Andrey
