Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 00/11] scsi: ufs: Remove overzealous memory barriers

This is an RFC because I'm not all the confident in this topic. UFS has
a lot of mb() variants used, most with comments saying "ensure this
takes effect before continuing". mb()'s aren't really the way to
guarantee that, a read back is the best method.

Some of these though I think could go a step further and remove the mb()
variant without a read back. As far as I can tell there's no real reason
to ensure it takes effect in most cases (there's no delay() or anything
afterwards, and eventually another readl()/writel() happens which is by
definition ordered).

In this current series I don't do that as I wasn't totally convinced,
but it should be considered when reviewing.

Hopefully this series gets enough interest where we can confidently
merge the final result after review helps improve it.

I'll be travelling a good bit the next 2ish weeks, so expect little
response until my return.

Thanks in advance for the help,
Andrew

Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 01/11] scsi: ufs: qcom: Perform read back after writing reset bit

Currently, the reset bit for the UFS provided reset controller (used by
its phy) is written to, and then a mb() happens to try and ensure that
hit the device. Immediately afterwards a usleep_range() occurs.

mb() ensure that the write completes, but completion doesn't mean that
it isn't stored in a buffer somewhere. The recommendation for
ensuring this bit has taken effect on the device is to perform a read
back to force it to make it all the way to the device. This is
documented in device-io.rst and a talk by Will Deacon on this can
be seen over here:

https://youtu.be/i6DayghhA8Q?si=MiyxB5cKJXSaoc01&t=1678

Let's do that to ensure the bit hits the device. By doing so and
guaranteeing the ordering against the immediately following
usleep_range(), the mb() can safely be removed.

In this case, I do not see the necessity to do a read back itself since there is
no delay afterwards nor any dependent operation in an altogether different
domain.

So removing the mb() should be sufficient.
