I know what the problem is.  I just got a BIOS update tonight which
was supposed to fix the issue.  However, pata_amd.c still failed
spectacularly at configuring the device whereas pata_cs5536 worked
fine.  

For kicks I switched my driver over to using PCI config registers
instead of MSRs.  And it still worked!

When I changed my driver I did a quickie conversion from wrmsr() to
pci_write_config_dword().  If I use pci_write_config_byte() instead
(like pata_amd.c), things fail miserably.  A register dump reveals
that any value I write becomes a 0.  Yay!
