I can verify that the suggested change removes the lockdep warning.
The below patch is against 3.9.7 and has been tested on hardware with
that release.

It applies with slight fuzz to linux-next; I've compile-tested that
version, but I have not booted that build on the hardware.  The
linux-next patch can be found here:

  http://scrye.com/~tkil/linux/fsl-sata-lockdep-201308/next-sata-fsl-save-irqs-while-coalescing.patch
  (or: http://preview.tinyurl.com/mpd4e9h )

Unfortunately, the hang on reboot was not easily repeatable; I'll
report whether it happens in the next few days or not.

Thanks again,
Anthony Foiani

Subject: [PATCH] sata: fsl: save irqs while coalescing

Before this patch, I was seeing the following lockdep splat on my
MPC8315 (PPC32) target:
