Agree, having self-explanatory variable names makes the code much more
readable. I'll add the patch in v4.

Do you mind if I set you as the author of the patch with the corresponding
Signed-off-by tag?

SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION will be set by ata_gen_passthru_sense(). Perhaps we
can move the SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION setting into else if?

        if (is_ata_passthru && (is_ck_cond_request || is_error || have_sense)) {
               if (!have_sense)
                       ata_gen_passthru_sense(qc);
               else if (is_ck_cond_request)
                       set_status_byte(qc->scsicmd, SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION);
               ata_scsi_set_passthru_sense_fields(qc);
        } else if (is_error && !have_sense) {
