I think this would work. Do you plan to implement this?
If not, I can take this up. Please let me know.

Thanks for the understanding and support.

I would like to re-post this patch to simply removing the pre-defined
initial values of all device powers.

For vop idea supporting the voltage detection way, could you please take
it up since this would be better to fit what you need for fixing this
issue?

Thanks,
Stanley Chu
While we are on this topic, another similar concern is how to set the UFS's regulators loading to Low Power Mode (LPM). Currently, the UFS_VREG_LPM_LOAD_UA is hardcoded to 1mA in the driver, and it is invoked by the ufshcd_config_vreg_lpm(). However, for some platforms, to put the regulators into LPM mode, it may be a different value than 1mA. Should we be using ufs_vreg's min_uA in the ufshcd_config_vreg_lpm() instead of using the hardcoded value?
And the ufs_vreg's min_uA value would be parsed by the vendor's code?
We can post a proposal if this sounds ok.

Bao
