Could you please elaborate on ufshcd_is_wb_attrs or ufshcd_is_wb_flag?
Sorry that I don't quite get it.
Since this change is only protecting illegal access from sysfs entries,
I am suggesting to handle it there, just like ufshcd_is_wb_attrs or
ufshcd_is_wb_flag
Are doing it for flags and attributes.

Thanks,
Avri

This is a general problem - if later we have HPB entries added into sysfs, we will hit it again. We cannot keep adding checks like ufshcd_is_xxx_attrs
or ufshcd_is_xxx_flag to block them, right?

Thanks,

Can Guo.
