Practically you are correct - most flash vendors moved in UFS3.1 to
1.2 supply instead of 1.8.
However, the host should provide all 3 supplies to the device because -
a) A flash vendor might want to still use 1.8 in its UFS3.1 device, and
b) We should allow a degenerated configurations, e.g. 3.1 devices,
that are degenerated to 2.1 or 2.2
Thank you for your comment.
The host can provide all 3 power supplies. However, the change is to ensure we do not exit early and fail to properly set the Icc level because the optional power
supply is not provided.

That said, I think we can entirely remove the check in the beginning
of the function,
But not because the spec allows it, but because each supply is
explicitly checked later on,
before reading its applicable max current entry in the power descriptor.
We need these checks to prevent NULL pointer access subsequently in this function.
Thanks,
Avri
