Not exactly what you're looking for, but I have a startech.com 2 Port
SATA 6Gbps PCI Express eSATA controller card [1].  I use this to
(occasionally) connect an external disk shelve (using a port
multiplier) to my machine.  OpenBSD detects this as:

ahci0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 vendor "Marvell", unknown product 0x9128 rev 
0x20: msi, AHCI 1.2
ahci0: port 7: 1.5Gb/s
scsibus1 at ahci0: 32 targets

So despite being an "unknown product", it's supported by ahci(4) and I
have successfully accessed disks behind it.  The product page says
this uses the Marvell 88SE9128.

This vendor has similar products with internal ports using the same
Marvell chip.  Those may be of use to you.

Cheers,

Paul 'WEiRD' de Weerd
