Not trying to offend, but I just wasted a few days running into mysterious freezes. Switching to the old IDE via82cxxx driver fixes this.
May I suggest blacklisting pata_via and including via82cxxx ? It would save people with VIA controller a lot of trouble! I am willing to test, the problem is easily reproducible, but the kernel in comment 36 does not even boot.
