Public bug reported:

I've had some trouble with DVD playback on Intrepid; I had the same
problems with custom-compiled 2.6.25, 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 kernels on Hardy
as well, so something apparently changed in 2.6.25 that affected my DVD
drive. I've narrowed it down somewhat - apparently the pata_amd module
is setting my DVD drive to PIO0 mode, which makes my DVD playback jerky
and slows down my entire system when doing anything DVD-related.
Partial output from "dmesg | grep ata" is how I discovered this:

[    3.477302] libata version 3.00 loaded.
[    4.000348] pata_amd 0000:00:0d.0: version 0.3.10

[    4.345511] ata2.00: configured for PIO0

I tried blacklisting pata_amd, but it didn't seem to work. How do I
disable it or prevent it from setting my drive to PIO mode, and why is
it doing this in the first place?
