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.
