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?

"This leads to falsely assume that..."

   "Leads us to falsely assume" then, maybe?

My apologies for the typo.
