This is a rework of r344701, that noticed that number of bytes passes to 8 bit sector count field gets truncated. First decision was to not pass anything, since ATA specs define the field as N/A. But it appeared to be a problem for some SAT devices, that require information about data transfer to operate properly. Some additional investigation shown that it is quite a common practice to set unused fields of ATA commands (fortunately ATA specs formally allow it) to supply the information to SAT layer. I have found SAS-SATA interposer that does not allow pass-through without it. As side effect, reduce code duplication by removing ata_do_28bit_cmd() function, replacing it with more universal ata_do_cmd(). MFC after: 1 week Sponsored by: iXsystems, Inc.
