This patch doesn't solve anything since hba->clk_gating.clk_gating_workq
is not used in ufshcd_init_clk_gating() after that workqueue has been
created. Additionally, this patch doesn't prevent that the UFS driver
will attempt to queue work on hba->clk_gating.clk_gating_workq if
allocation of that workqueue fails. If it would be possible to vote on
Linux kernel patches, my vote would be -2.
