 It looks as a duplicated PR kern/57174. IMHO to avoid such questions in
future the following steps should be made:

1. Add the entry to 4.9-RELEASE Errata (and/or UPDATING) about broken tagged
   queueing in ata(4).

2. Fix ata(4)+tagged queueing in -STABLE, test the fix, optionally MFS it to
   RELENG_4_9.

I understand that (2) would be rather difficult, but I think that (1) should
be done ASAP!

Sincerely, Dmitry
