Thanks for remind, I will add below example in commit message in v3.

For example,

After above inconsistent status happens, IO request can be submitted
to UFS device driver but required resource (like clock) is not resumed
yet thus lead to warning as below call stack,

WARN_ON(hba->clk_gating.state != CLKS_ON);
ufshcd_queuecommand
scsi_dispatch_cmd
scsi_request_fn
__blk_run_queue
cfq_insert_request
__elv_add_request
blk_flush_plug_list
blk_finish_plug
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
kjournald2

We may see all behind IO requests hang because of no response from
storage host or device and then soft lockup happens in system. In the
end, system may crash in many ways.
