According to information I have received, some ATA (and possibly ATAPI?)
devices intentionally return some data in these cases. In the case of
certain ATA devices, this returned data permits inspection of the
incorrected data.
I dunno about ATAPI devices, but it sounds like returning data here may
be an unspecified but known behavior.
As such, it sounds like this warrants some core changes and not simply
as a horkage bit?
