Can you try changing include/linux/libata.h:

Log became a bit longer ...

There is also a (maybe related) BUG in there.

It fails notably faster now, early in the init scripts.  Some race
maybe?   The timing changes due to the excessive debug output makes it
happen more likely?

Well, it doesn't explain why it happens instantly for everyone else, unless there's some really odd timing issue going on. Is your xen the xen-unstable tip? Do you have DEBUG=y enabled?

Also, does swiotlb=0 make any difference?

It doesn't.  Hmm, from the boot messages it looks like it doesn't
actually disable the swiotb ...

Oh, maybe "iommu=off" then?
