+AD4- scsi transport is a framework that allow to send scsi commands to
+AD4- a non-scsi devices. Still, it is flexible enough to allow
+AD4- sending non-scsi commands as well. We will use this framework to
+AD4- manage ufs devices by sending UPIU transactions.

+AD4- We added a new scsi transport module, a ufs-bsg LLD companion, 
+AD4- and some new API to the ufs driver.

My understanding is that all upstream code uses the bsg interface for +ACo-SCSI+ACo-
commands. Sending UPIU commands over a bsg interface seems like abuse of that
interface to me. Aren't you opening a can of worms with such an approach?
