If it was, it sounds like you need to install that driver and rebuild the initrd for the newer kernel.
That's what I'm thinking, given the difference in size between the old kernel's initrd and the new kernel's initrd - the old kernel's precompiled initrd is significantly larger..
Check /etc/mod(ules|probe).conf for an "alias scsi_hostadapter ..." line. You should be able to find the module referenced in the /lib/modules directory of the old kernel, if it doesn't exist in the modules directory of the new kernel, it's walked somehow, I don't think it would be removed from a newer kernel update.
No entry exists for the module in modules.conf, and I've checked for sata_sil in both old and new /lib/modules directories and it exists in both kernel versions.

One thing to check is if you have kernel-unsupported installed in the old kernel version. If so, make sure to install the new version as well.
