Okay, I will add a comment explaining it, as other logic (with &&) won't
deliver the behavior we expect.

The logic it implements is: for an op to be dtr, if any phase has
non-zero bytes, it must have dtr field set as true. So, it does p
implies q: p->q = (!p || q) i.e. if phase has non-zero bytes (p) then
check its dtr field (q). If all phases are empty, then follow what
op.cmd.dtr says.
