I would guess Brasero is issuing a command with the length of data

likely to change state as it knows the transfer size and that will
*correctly* cause an HSM error and what follows.

Now the question is who gets the length wrong - Brasero or the ata
translation code in libata

Brasero does exactly the same as my test app which I attached to my last mail. Is my test app wrong?
