Hi Martin,

This patch series optimizes the hot path of the UFS driver by making
struct scsi_cmnd and struct ufshcd_lrb adjacent. Making these two data
structures adjacent is realized as follows:

@@ -9040,6 +9046,7 @@ static const struct scsi_host_template ufshcd_driver_template = {
     .name            = UFSHCD,
     .proc_name        = UFSHCD,
     .map_queues        = ufshcd_map_queues,
+    .cmd_size        = sizeof(struct ufshcd_lrb),
     .init_cmd_priv        = ufshcd_init_cmd_priv,
     .queuecommand        = ufshcd_queuecommand,
     .mq_poll        = ufshcd_poll,

The following changes had to be made prior to making these two data
structures adjacent:
* Add support for driver-internal and reserved commands in the SCSI core.
* Instead of making the reserved command slot (hba->reserved_slot)
  invisible to the SCSI core, let the SCSI core allocate a reserved command.
* Remove all UFS data structure members that are no longer needed
  because struct scsi_cmnd and struct ufshcd_lrb are now adjacent
* Call ufshcd_init_lrb() from inside ufshcd_queuecommand() instead of
  calling this function before I/O starts. This is necessary because
  ufshcd_memory_alloc() allocates fewer instances than the block layer
  allocates requests. See also the following code in the block layer
  core:

    if (blk_mq_init_request(set, hctx->fq->flush_rq, hctx_idx,
                hctx->numa_node))

  Although the UFS driver could be modified such that ufshcd_init_lrb()
  is called from ufshcd_init_cmd_priv(), realizing this would require
  moving the memory allocations that happen from inside
  ufshcd_memory_alloc() into ufshcd_init_cmd_priv(). That would make
  this patch series even larger. Although ufshcd_init_lrb() is called for each
  command, the benefits of reduced indirection and better cache efficiency
  outweigh the small overhead of per-command lrb initialization.
* ufshcd_add_scsi_host() happens now before any device management
  commands are submitted. This change is necessary because this patch
  makes device management command allocation happen when the SCSI host
  is allocated.
* Allocate as many command slots as the host controller supports. Decrease
  host->cmds_per_lun if necessary once it is clear whether or not the UFS
  device supports less command slots than the host controller.

Changes compared to v2:
 - Removed scsi_host_update_can_queue() and also the UFS driver refactoring
   patches that were introduced to support this call.
-- Added .queue_reserved_command(). Added ufshcd_queue_reserved_command().
-- Removed a BUG_ON() statement from ufshcd_get_dev_mgmt_cmd().
-- Modified and renamed ufshcd_mcq_decide_queue_depth().

Changes compared to v1:
 - Left out the kernel patches related to support for const SCSI command
   arguments.
 - Added SCSI core patches for allocating a pseudo SCSI device and reserved
   command support.
 - Added several kernel patches to switch the UFS driver from a hardcoded
   reserved slot to calling scsi_get_internal_cmd().
 - Enable .alloc_pseudo_sdev in the scsi_debug driver.
