Hi Asutosh,

This patch is the second complaint about the mechanism that toggles the
WriteBooster during clock scaling. Can this mechanism be removed entirely?
commit 87bd05016a64 that introduced UFSHCD_CAP_WB_WITH_CLK_SCALING enables
the platform vendors and OEMs to maintain wb toggling - should they choose so.
Why remove it in its entirety?

Hi Avri,

I'm in favor of keeping kernel code simple :-)

UFSHCD_CAP_WB_WITH_CLK_SCALING controls whether or not clock scaling affects the WriteBooster depending on which host controller is in use. Shouldn't this depend on which UFS device is present instead of on the type of host controller?

Thanks,

Bart.
