OK, but we can't blindly go setting GROUP NUMBER to a non-zero value.
That'll break a massive amount of devices which will fail READ/WRITE
commands with INVALID FIELD IN CDB.

So aside from requiring the device to report GROUP_SUP=1, we'll need
some sort of indication that this device supports the UFS Turbo Write
feature. If you are engaged with JEDEC on this, please tell them we'll
need a VPD page, a mode page, or something similar to use as trigger to
entertain enabling this feature.
