Persistent Reserve In parameter data for Report Capabilities Definitions:
Length This field indicates the length in bytes of the parameter data.

indicating the SPEC_I_PT bit in the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command
parameter data is not supported.
ATP_C The library will return a value of 0, indicating the ALL_TG_PT bit in the
PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command parameter data is not supported

■ 0 = The library does not support the persist through power loss capability
for persistent reservations and the APTPL bit in the in PERSISTENT
RESERVE OUT command parameter data
