Reading the description, I don't really understand why this module is
needed though. Is there a bug in the kernel?

CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB:

Say Y here if you want to use SAT (ata pass through) on devices based
on the Cypress USB/ATA bridge supporting ATACB. This will allow you
to use tools to tune and monitor your drive (like hdparm or smartctl).

If you say no here your device will still work with the standard usb
mass storage class.
