 From the UFSHCI 4.0 specification, about the legacy (single queue) mode:
"The host controller always process transfer requests in-order according
to the order submitted to the list. In case of multiple commands with
single doorbell register ringing (batch mode), The dispatch order for
these transfer requests by host controller will base on their index in
the List. A transfer request with lower index value will be executed
before a transfer request with higher index value."

 From the UFSHCI 4.0 specification, about the MCQ mode:
"Command Submission
1. Host SW writes an Entry to SQ
2. Host SW updates SQ doorbell tail pointer

Command Processing
3. After fetching the Entry, Host Controller updates SQ doorbell head
    pointer
4. Host controller sends COMMAND UPIU to UFS device"

In other words, for both legacy and MCQ mode, UFS controllers are
required to forward commands to the UFS device in the order these
commands have been received from the host.

Notes:
- For legacy mode this is only correct if the host submits one
   command at a time. The UFS driver does this.
- Also in legacy mode, the command order is not preserved if
   auto-hibernation is enabled in the UFS controller. Hence, enable
   zone write locking if auto-hibernation is enabled.

This patch improves performance as follows on my test setup:
- With the mq-deadline scheduler: 2.5x more IOPS for small writes.
- When not using an I/O scheduler compared to using mq-deadline with
   zone locking: 4x more IOPS for small writes.

In legacy SDB mode with auto-hibernation enabled, the default setting for the driver_preserves_write_order = false.

Using the default setting, it may be missing this check that is part of the ufshcd_auto_hibern8_update()->ufshcd_update_preserves_write_order().

Auto-hibernation should not be enabled by default unless these conditions are met?
