ATA still broken, but now differently

Well, Thursday's world seems to have broken ATA in a new and interesting
way.  Before updating world in mid-September, my drive ran perfectly in
UDMA66 mode.  Since that time, the system is absolutely guaranteed to freeze
if I run in any mode higher than BIOSPIO.  Before two days ago, that meant
getting errors like:

   ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 reties left)
   ata0: resetting devices
   ad0: FAILURE - already active DMA on this device
   ad0: setting up DMA failed

before infinite, unbreakable hangs.  As of today, when running in any DMA
mode and exercising the ATA system, I get an endless stream of messages:

   swap pager: indefinite wait buffer

and I can only break out of the error cycle with a reset.

For the record, I've checked the cabling multiple times.  "smartctl" gives
good results.  The machine runs perfectly under FreeBSD 4.9 or versions of
5.x prior to mid-September.

Any thoughts before I file (another) PR?
