Nah we should really dump the full taskfile...


Agreed.  But the original command byte is not stored anywhere
for us to dump it from.

er eh?

All callers of ata_to_sense_error() have the full taskfile available.

Yes, but the command byte gets overwritten by the read-back status byte,
since they share the same byte in the taskfile.

So once the command has failed, the command byte is no longer there.

Or is it?
