libata: workaround DRQ=1 ERR=1 for ATAPI tape drives After an error condition, some ATAPI tape drives set DRQ=1 together with ERR=1 when asking the host to transfer the CDB of the next packet command (i.e. request sense). This patch, a revised version of Alan/Mark's previous patch, adds ATA_HORKAGE_STUCK_ERR to workaround the problem by ignoring the ERR bit and proceed sending the CDB.
