dmesg of 8.2 booting on the same machine

This problem affects both 11.2 and 12.0 on my old laptop. The machine boots
fine into 8.2 (dmesg attached).

I may be misreading the boot-messages, but it looks like it identifies 3
storage devices:

1. An SSD (ada0)
2. A CD/DVD (cd0)
3. Sony's "memory stick" reader -- with no media inserted

The boot reports:

GEOM: new disk cd0
GEOM: new disk ada0

and then goes into infinite cycle of (retyping):

(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): ATAPI_IDENTIFY. ACB: a1 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00
(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): CAM status: Command timeout
(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): Retrying command
...
(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): ATAPI_IDENTIFY. ACB: a1 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00
(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): CAM status: Command timeout
(aprobe0:ata1:0:1:0): Retries exhausted
...

It then resets ata1 and tries again... And again...

Because 8.2 continues to boot fine, I do not believe, anything is wrong with
the hardware.

The Bug #202712 is similar, but over there the hang is over the SETFEATURES SET
TRANSFER MODE -- my laptop can't get through the ATAPI_IDENTIFY...
