I can confirm that sata_nv.ko does not work in 4.18 (and new) kernel
version correctly. More details are in email:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20191225180824.bql2o5whougii4ch@pali/T/

I tried this patch and it fixed above problems with sata_nv.ko. It just
needs small modification (see below).

So you can add my:

Tested-by: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@gmail.com>

And I hope that patch would be backported to 4.18 and 4.19 stable
branches soon as distributions kernels are broken for machines with
these nvidia sata controllers.

Anyway, what is that another case in sata_nv which needs to be fixed
too?

Here is missing

  EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(ata_qc_get_active);

otherwise sata_nv.ko cannot use this ata_qc_get_active() function and
throw error about undefined symbol when modprobing module.
