It's issuing an invalid command (data command w/o any data) via SG and
libata triggered a warning before failing the command.  The warning is
still somewhat meaningful in that if we ever hit that during normal
kernel operation, it shows the caller who's screwing up.  idk, we can
shut it up (nothing is really wrong in this case) or make it a bit
smarter (filter out invalid sg commands earlier).

Thanks.
