It must be just a workaround, because if your drive is SATA, it should be 
handled by libata. piix is the old Intel IDE driver. The new Feisty kernel 
probably expected to use libata for the drive, but due to the current support 
for the newest storage controllers it ran into problems. Hence the need for 
you to temporarily revert to the piix driver.
