I tested your patch and it has no adverse effects on my development system. If there is a general consensus about the call order from the hot-plug/pci people, I'll include it in my next EATA driver revision.

The following patch makes drivers/scsi/eata.c wait with probing pci resources until we have called pci_enable_device. This is recommended due to hot-plug considerations (according to Jeff Garzik). It applies against ac12 and 241p11.
