The below call stack prevents clk_gating at every IO completion.
We can remove the condition, ufshcd_any_tag_in_use(), since clkgating_work
will check it again.


I think checking ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() in either ufshcd_release() or
gate_work() can break UFS clk gating's functionality.

ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() was introduced to replace hba->lrb_in_use. However, they are not exactly same - ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() returns true if any tag assigned from block layer is still in use, but tags are released asynchronously (through block softirq), meaning it does not reflect the real occupation of UFS host. That is after UFS host finishes all tasks, ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() can still return true.

This change only removes the check of ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() in ufshcd_release(), but having the check of it in gate_work() can still prevent gating from happening. The current change works for you maybe because the tags are release before hba->clk_gating.delay_ms expires, but if hba->clk_gating.delay_ms is shorter or somehow block softirq is retarded, gate_work() may have chance to see ufshcd_any_tag_in_use()
returns true. What do you think?

Thanks,

Can Guo.

In __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl
Ihba->lrb_in_use is cleared immediately when UFS driver
finishes all tasks

ufshcd_complete_requests(struct ufs_hba *hba)
  ufshcd_transfer_req_compl()
    __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl()
      __ufshcd_release(hba)
        if (ufshcd_any_tag_in_use() == 1)
           return;
  ufshcd_tmc_handler(hba);
    blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter();
