No probably a kernel bug. /proc/pci should show the same info from the
kernel's point of view.

Is the BIOS on the board up to date?
Does the BIOS have a mode setting for the SATA ports?

that the SATA only worked properly in linux when set to enhanced mode
not the default combined mode. When set right it worked perfectly even
with 2.6.1.
