Re: [PATCH v4] Add support for SCT Write Same

+	u8 unmap = cdb[1] & 0x8;
+	bool use_sct = unmap ? false : true;
I think this would be a bit easier to understand if the use_sct flag
goes away, and we instead just key off "if (unmap)" below.
-	/* for now we only support WRITE SAME with the unmap bit set */
-	if (unlikely(!(cdb[1] & 0x8))) {
+	/*
+	 * If UNMAP is not set and SCT write same is not available then fail.
+	 */
+	if (use_sct && !ata_id_sct_write_same(dev->id)) {
 		fp = 1;
 		bp = 3;
 		goto invalid_fld;
I don't think the comment adds much value.  But now that we implement
WRITE SAME for both the unmap and non-unmap case we'll also need a similar
check here to reject a WRITE SAME with the unmap flag if TRIM isn't
supported, don't we?

I still think that this is broken for arbitrary user space pass through
command (and probably was broken before you touched the code).  We really
need something that does a kmap here.  I think the safest think to do
is to rewrite ata_set_lba_range_entries to use sg_copy_from_buffer (
and move it out of the header while we're at it).  That should be
a prep patch to the SCT support.

The comment doesn't match what the code does.  It only uses SCT
if use_sct, aka !unmap is true.

Please handle all the supported commands in a single fallthrough

Also please make supported a bool and do the conversion to the magic
SCSI format in a single place at the end of the function.

Should we report this for non-ZBC devices?
