I have what looks like similar problems. The issue I have is that I
don't think the problem is ONLY libata related.
I have two linux PCs. One called "games", the other called "localhost".
The problem happens quite quickly on the old "games" machine, but I can
run for days/weeks until I see the problem on the "localhost".
It might be happening on the "localhost", but I am just not noticing.
The difference being that if reiserfs sees this error, it cannot
recover, and I have reiserfs on the "games" machine. The "localhost"
only uses ext3, and ext3 recovers gracefully from this problem.
Can I use libata on this old "games" machine? It is an old Pentium 3
machine.
In any case, The "games" machine is currently switched off until I can
find a kernel that works, so I will happily test different kernels and
patches, if people have suggestions.

I have two desktop linux machines. One is an old Pentium 3 which shows
the following errors(no libata involved):

The other has the following errors:
