I got it. I've also tried to consult this with Jeff and Tejun.
Tejon thought this is not a REAL solution for all storage drivers.
He reminds me there is another way to disable the sata_via in latest 2.6.31 kernel, called pci_stub.
Add the boot parameter with the device ID which you want to disable in the BOOT menu.
After trying this method, I could disable the sata_via (built-in mode) during system bootup.
This method is a little bit complex, but work. :)
