Description:

 For an UNDO logfile, LOGFILE_GROUP_NAME gives the name of the logfile group to which the logfile belongs. For a datafile, this column is empty.

See below. Seems to have a LOGFILE_GROUP_NAME for a datafile to me.

*************************** 5. row ***************************
           FILE_NAME: datafile.dat
           FILE_TYPE: DATAFILE
     TABLESPACE_NAME: ts2
  LOGFILE_GROUP_NAME: lg2
LOGFILE_GROUP_NUMBER: 0
        FREE_EXTENTS: 12
       TOTAL_EXTENTS: 12
        INITIAL_SIZE: 12582912
        MAXIMUM_SIZE: 12582912
              STATUS: NORMAL
               EXTRA: CLUSTER_NODE=2

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Correct on-line docs

For a MySQL Cluster Disk Data logfile or datafile, the value of the ENGINE column is always NDB.
actually
 ENGINE: ndbcluster
