This function returns true if ODD is zero power ready, false otherwise.

The pre-condition that the ODD can be considered zero power ready is:
there is no medium inside(hence, atapi_eh_tur should return a failure)
and the sense_key is set to NOT_READY. If the pre-condition is not
met as is checked by the above if, we return false.

Good point, thanks for the catch.

I think I will simply set sense_key to zero beforehand instead of
changing the condition logic here, and it follows the other usage of the
atapi_eh_tur in atapi_eh_clear_ua where the sense_key is also set to 0
beforehand.

Subject: [PATCH] libata: zpodd: initialize sense_key

The sense_key could be uninitialized after the call to atapi_eh_tur so
initialize it beforehand.
