I've been using the 2.6.17 series with "all-generic-ide irqpoll" on a
Gigabyte 965P-S3 motherboard [using the ICH8 chipset].

It worked semi decent [other than random interrupt 177 hehehe].

However, this morning I took the same .config and applied it to 2.6.18
with some nasties.  It compiled fine, the disks work now (my SATA
drives also show up as /dev/sd* finally) but now the sky2 device
disappeared.

lspci can still see it, it's a Marvell "Uknown Device 4364, rev 12"
sitting off the PCI-E bus.

This device was not listed in the 2.6.17 sky2 driver and is not included in the 2.6.18 version either. Either you modified your 2.6.17 kernel or your distro did.

You can simply add the device ID to the list in 2.6.18. Patches to do this are already on their way to mainline for 2.6.19.
