Suse ships some fix now (storage-fixup and storage-fixup.conf at the bottom of http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=386555 )
They use a blacklist approach for disabling APM on affected drives, which seems reasonable.
The blacklist seems to be maintained by someone at linux-ide at vger.kernel.org (see comments in storage-fixup.conf).

Looks quite good, what about including it in ubuntu?
