Well, it would have been nice but the disk freezes continued, especially when resuming from hibernation while on battery. Meanwhile I am using 2.6.32-21-generic with the same behavior. However, only today I realized the "libata.force=noncq" hint and it seems this kernel argument eventually solved the issue. My M1330 has a SAMSUNG HM500LI hard disk. So it might be better to blacklist it in libata-core.c. In case the disk will timeout again I'll drop a note but hope that won't be necessary. Too bad it took so long...
