    ms/libata: Fix ATA request sense
    
    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 us to falsely assume that request sense data failed and to the
    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.

    =====================
    Patchset description:
    
    Add support of SMR ATA disk
    
    This patchset adds support of SMR ATA disk through SCSI generic interface
    aka /dev/sgX.
    
    The SCSI generic interface is used by libzbc library for communicate
    with SMR disk. These patches allow us to use SMR disk through
    "ata" backend of libzbc ("scsi" and "block" backends aren't supported).
    
    These patches were tested with following command:
     libzbc/test/zbc_test.sh /dev/sgX
