Hm, do you have lockdep enabled? If not, does lockdep make this go away? Because lockdep will set IRQF_DISABLED for all interrupt handlers, and unless that flag is set, handle_IRQ_event will reenable interrupts while the handler is running. And ahci_interrupt only uses a plain spin_lock, so interrupts keep being enabled. The patch below should help with that. Hmhm, maybe that also solves the deadlock you saw? Dunno... I can't come up with an useful commit message right now, but I'll resend in suitable form for submission if that thing actually works.
