UFS device and link can be put in multiple different low power modes hence
UFS driver supports multiple different low power modes. By default UFS
driver selects the default (optimal) low power mode (which gives moderate
power savings and have relatively less enter and exit latencies) but
we might have to tune this default power mode for different chipset
platforms to meet the low power requirements/goals. Hence this patch
adds option to change default UFS low power mode (level).

What's the default?

I assume these are minimums? The OS can pick higher power states. This
seems to be a bit Linux specific (as 'runtime PM' could be considered
Linux specific). For every other device, we don't put this type of
information in DT, but is user controlled.
I didn't completely understand your comment.
Do you not want these properties to be in DT file?

Right, not if it is a user decision.

When you say user-controlled, do you mean control it through sysfs entries?

Yes.

So really, wouldn't 1
property be sufficient for cases where a mode doesn't work due to
some h/w limitation. Otherwise, it is an OS or user decision.
I didn't completely understand this. Could you please elaborate on your
intent here?

The case that makes sense for this to be in DT is if there are h/w
limitations that prevent some low power modes. In such a case, that
limit is not likely specific to runtime PM or system suspend.

                        directions at once. If not specified, default is 2 lanes per direction.

I'll remove it in v2.


+            spm-level = <5>;

These seem like sane defaults. When and why would you use some
different?
I think each of the deeper sleep modes are associated with an increasing
wakeup latency. For e.g. '0' would have the highest power-consumption
and no resume latency at all as compared to '5'.
So depending on use-cases other modes may be chosen.

The use-case can change in a running system. For example if you are
plugged in, then you probably don't want to enter a lower power mode.

Ok - Thanks.
I'm gonna make the following changes in v2:
1. Remove these entries from DT
2. Add support for these entries in sysfs.
3. Keep 3 as the default value for [rpm/spm]-levels
