scsi: ufs: core: Re-arm the device command completion before submitting

This patch re-arms the hba->dev_cmd.complete completion immediately before
submitting a device command. This aims to prevent using a stale completion
from a previously timed-out command, particularly in MCQ mode.

[Severity: Medium]
Could this introduce a data race with concurrent interrupt-driven completions?

Looking at ufshcd_compl_one_cqe(), if the completion queue entry for a
previously timed-out command arrives right as we submit a new one, the IRQ
handler will call complete() on this shared completion.

The complete() function takes x->wait.lock and performs a read-modify-write
on x->done. However, reinit_completion() performs an unlocked plain write
setting x->done to 0. 

If these run concurrently:

CPU1 (CQE handler)
ufshcd_compl_one_cqe()
  complete(&hba->dev_cmd.complete)
    spin_lock_irqsave(&x->wait.lock, flags);
    x->done++;
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&x->wait.lock, flags);

CPU2 (Submitter)
ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd()
  reinit_completion(&hba->dev_cmd.complete)
    x->done = 0;

Since ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd() only holds hba->dev_cmd.lock to serialize
submitters but doesn't synchronize with the asynchronous CQE handler, this
concurrent access to x->done violates the memory model and could lead to
lost or spurious completions.

Would it be safer to drain the completion instead, perhaps by looping
with try_wait_for_completion() rather than performing a plain write?
