May I known the result of same test case if the SATA drive is
connected to on-bord SATA?

If it is assumed to be HBA firmware issue then it should be fixed in
the Firmware not in the driver. Have you tried with the latest HBA
Firmware image?  if it still occurs then is it possible for you to
share the firmware logs?

I think that service request has raised for this issue with Broadcom,
in this service request our support people can help you in collecting
the firmware logs and can provide the analysis of those firmware logs.

Thanks,
Sreekanth
