Subject: [PATCH v1 1/4] ata: libata: Remove redundant sense_buffer memsets
scsi_queue_rq() memsets sense_buffer before a command is dispatched.
Libata is not memsetting sense_buffer before setting sense data that
was obtained from a disk so there should be no reason to do a memset
for ATA PASS-THROUGH / ATAPI.
Memsetting the sense_buffer in ata_gen_passthru_sense() is erasing valid
sense data that was previously obtained from a disk. A follow-up patch
will modify ata_gen_passthru_sense() to stop generating sense data based
on ATA status register bits if a valid sense data is already present.
