I just did it the same way as the standard version in libata-core does it.
In this particular case, we know it was NCQ, so we know that the original
tf->flags have (ATA_TFLAG_LBA48|ATA_TFLAG_ISADDR|ATA_TFLAG_DEVICE) set.
I figured better to copy than just overwrite, because new flags might
come along.
Those flags are to tell which parts of the TF are valid or should be
read in case of TFLAG_LBA48. So, a TF after tf_read should always have
TFLAG_ISADDR and TFLAG_DEVICE. TFLAG_LBA48 works both ways. If it was
set when tf_read is called the higher part of LBA is read and the
resulting tf should have TFLAG_LBA48 set. But yeah the original code
isn't like that. If you can fix it up together with the NCQ path, it
would be great.
Thanks.
