For an ATA device supporting the sense data reporting feature set,
a failed command will trigger the execution of ata_eh_request_sense if
the result task file of the failed command has the ATA_SENSE bit set
(sense data available bit). ata_eh_request_sense executes the
REQUEST SENSE DATA EXT command to retrieve the sense data of the failed
command. On success of REQUEST SENSE DATA EXT, the ATA_SENSE bit will
NOT be set (the command succeeded) but ata_eh_request_sense
nevertheless tests the availability of sense data by testing that bit
presence in the result tf of the REQUEST SENSE DATA EXT command.
This leads to a falsy assume that request sense data failed and to the

   False assumption?

warning message:

atax.xx: request sense failed stat 50 emask 0

Upon success of REQUEST SENSE DATA EXT, set the ATA_SENSE bit in the
result task file command so that sense data can be returned by
ata_eh_request_sense.
