Until the very latest code the speed setting on the libata tree is
conservative and sets the speed per channel not per device. 

The fact you get the same response with drivers/ide rather suggests that
in this case the problem is cable detection. Tweak ata_piix to print out
the cable type it detects. If it thinks its a 40 pin cable you know
where to start.

Right now speed setting by user apps isnt supported.
