This patch fix failure to read the string descriptor. In kernel v4.9.100,we encountered the following error info: [3.141326] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_read_desc_param: Failed reading descriptor. desc_id 0 param_offset 0 buff_len 31 ret 0 [3.141331] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufs_get_device_info: Failed reading Device Desc. err = -22 [3.141336] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufs_advertise_fixup_device: Failed getting device info. err = -22 [3.145923] ufs final power mode: gear = 3, lane = 2, pwr = 1, rate = 2 [3.145927] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: set TX_EQUALIZER 3.5db [3.157229] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: check TX_EQUALIZER DB value lane0 = 0x1 [3.157716] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: check TX_EQUALIZER DB value lane1 = 0x1 [3.190446] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.227484] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.263496] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.299509] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.335528] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.371501] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.407493] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.443501] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 [3.479491] ufshcd-hi3660 ff3b0000.ufs: ufshcd_query_flag: Sending flag query for idn 3 failed, err = -11 If failed to read device desc, card_data->wmanufacturerid and card_data->model will not get the correct value, meaning that hba->dev_quirks will no longer work. And some ufs device's quirks handling will even cause ufs can't work. In fact, our hikey960 board using Hynix ufs device failed to initialize on v4.9 because a quirk of the hynix device was not handled. We test with hikey960 & hikey970 boards in aosp-master hikey-linaro-4.9 (v4.9.100), this patch can solve the above problem perfectly.
