I confirm this, using 6.11-rc2. The problem is actually hdparm code which
assumes that the sense data is in descriptor format without ever looking at the
D_SENSE bit to verify that. So commit 28ab9769117c reveals this issue because as
its title explains, it (correctly) honors D_SENSE instead of always generating
sense data in descriptor format.

Hmm... This is annoying. The kernel is fixed to be spec compliant but that
breaks old/non-compliant applications... We definitely should fix hdparm code,
but I think we still need to revert 28ab9769117c...

Niklas, Igor, thoughts ?
