Hi Authur,
As suggested by Bjorn, patch 1-2 set implement a PCI device
driver to manage eata PCI devices. And patch 3 tries to support PCI
device hot-removal for eata, but I have no change to test due to
limited knowledge about scsi subsystem and lacking of hardware for
tests.
So you could please help to test patch 1-2? Patch 3 is just
for comments.
Thanks!
Gerry

With patches 1 and 2 applied, I get a successful boot with IRQ mapping:

[ 1.161207] scsi host0: EATA/DMA 2.0x rev. 8.10.00


but I still get errors when trying to do a kexec reboot, see http://www.users.on.net/~arthur.marsh/20150915547.jpg

roughly it reads (after the synchronising SCSI cache reboot messages) and a long period of a dark screen:

EATA0: abort, mbox 63 is in use.
sd 0:0:6:0: reset, enter.

It would be great if this problem could be fixed.
