Hi Can,

My conclusion from your emails is that ufshcd_queuecommand() can spend
more time than the SCSI timeout (30 seconds) in dma_map_sg(). A
dma_map_sg() call that keeps the CPU busy during more than 30 seconds is
not only weird but it is also a disaster from the point of view of
energy consumption. Please fix the root cause.

Thanks,

Bart.
