Hi Alim,
Thank you for your review.
Sorry for the late response - I was away for a couple of weeks.

Thanks,

No, actually its quite simplistic.
__ufshcd_query_descriptor set dev_cmd.query.descriptor 
to point to its designated space before sending the read descriptor query,
and to null once it's done.
But it doesn't check it in ufshcd_copy_query_response when the query
returns from the device, which it should, as I indicated in the commit log.
