Oops.  I was working on the older code, and blindly applied the -next just
before sending this patch.  The problem I said in this commit log has been
fixed by the commit e8cb64db81e8c88c5c824ca74c2e57b4c6919ca6 ("scsi: ufs:
fix static checker warning in ufshcd_parse_clock_info").

So I withdraw this patch for now.  I will try with another title next time.
