Currently I/O request could be still submitted to UFS device while UFS is working on shutdown flow. This may lead to racing as below scenarios and finally system may crash due to unclocked register accesses. To fix this kind of issues, specifically quiesce all SCSI devices before UFS shutdown to block all I/O request sending from block layer. Example of racing scenario: While UFS device is runtime-suspended Thread #1: Executing UFS shutdown flow, e.g., ufshcd_suspend(UFS_SHUTDOWN_PM) Thread #2: Executing runtime resume flow triggered by I/O request, e.g., ufshcd_resume(UFS_RUNTIME_PM) This breaks the assumption that UFS PM flows can not be running concurrently and thus some unexpected racing behavior may happen.
