Hello.

In 2.6.29 (and probably earlier) kernels, booting in docking station
results in undocked s2ram failing.

Problem seems to be that hda (cdrom in dock) is not deregistered
during undock, and that hda driver loops spitting error messages at
'too-fast-to-read' rate when suspend with missing hda is attempted.
What driver do you mean exactly? Old-IDE I would guess.

Does this also happen with a PATA/libata driver?
I guess I'm confused. I tried:

Er, CONFIG_ATA_PIIX is a SATA driver.

Not really, it drives both SATA and PATA controllers.
