As we know, the ufs host controller is disabled and enabled in the ufshcd_hba_enable(). So, host controller registers are clear after sw reset.
Once the host fails to link startup 3 times, all host's controller can be clear due to executing last ufshcd_hba_enable()(s/w reset).
That's why we need to skip last sw reset to get valid host register values.
Before
(ufshcd_dme_link_startup() -> ufshcd_hba_enable() -> retries--) * 3 times.
After
(ufshcd_dme_link_startup() -> if retries is 0, break. -> ufshcd_hba_enable() -> retries--) * 3 times.
In this case, ufshcd_print_host_state(), ufshcd_print_pwr_info(), ufshcd_print_evt_hist() are valid.
