A way to have various requests "in flight" and let the disk itself order
them to get "better" performance. Whether it helps performance or not
depends on the IO workload, the kind of device, and the quality of the NCQ
firmware in the device.

It is a blacklist for defective products that misbehave when NCQ is
enabled, or which have such a poor excuse of an NCQ implementation that one
should never enable it.
