In the command completion code we need to check for abnormal completion 
due to underflow, but ignore it when it occurs in some commands, like 
inquiry. This is why we check for rw command - it is equivalent to !inquiry.

I'll see if we can change the check to explicitly ignore certain 
commands which complete abnormally with underflow.

You're talking about VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD (opcode 0x7f) for 32-byte CDs, 
right?

I need to check on WRITE SAME.
