@Koen Calliauw 
as mentioned in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15923 the problem 
is that the ata_generic driver uses only PIO mode instead of DMA mode (look at 
"dmesg | grep ata",  there are messages like ata1.00: configured for PIO). 
However it is stated to be possible to drive the disks in DMA mode by patching 
the driver. In conclusion to the description above this should the be in 
ata_generic.c, around line 53 (bits 5 and 6 are false and therefore flags 
checked in line 63 won't work either). 

It would be very nice if Dave could update his image, so we could test
this approach if it works.
