Physical RDM broken after 7U3 update

Hello all,

I used to have four SATA drives as physical RDM. Now after 7.0.3 Upgrade the VM does not start anymore. The error is: File system specific implementation of Ioctl[file] failed. Failed to start the virtual machine. Cannot open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/xxx/yyy.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

It's a Supermicro x11spm-tf with a Lewisburg SATA AHCI Controller. Any ideas? Recrated the VMDKs already, locked VM RAM. No success.
