 Ok, the disk has a host protected area and now I'm telling libata to
disable it.

 The error messages has disappeared.

 But... Is it safe to do it? I've read somewhere that the BIOS and
other softwares may use that area.

 Also, I remember that with the IDE driver I wasn't seeing that
messages, which means either: it was disabling it by default or
was just ignoring it.
