With recent -CURRENT kernels (including one from yesterday), I get
random strange behaviours as far as my ATA disk is concerned:

  - the disk light stays on;
  - I can read from the disk but cannot write anything to it (sync
    blocks, writes from vi block, ...);
  - suspending then resuming the laptop doesn't help;
  - I can get to DDB and use panic to dump the kernel, but it points
    me to the keyboard interrupt since I used ctrl-alt-esc to get
    there.

It is on a Sony VAIO PCG-Z600NE, with the bundled 12GB HDD:

atapci0: <Intel PIIX4 ATA33 controller> port 0xfcb0-0xfcbf at device 7.1 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
ad0: 11513MB <IBM-DARA-212000> [23392/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
