Hi Martin,

This patch series enables lock context analysis for the SCSI core and the UFS
driver. The advantages are as follows:
 - The compiler (only Clang) verifies whether the lock and unlock calls match
   what has been declared via __must_hold(), __acquires() or __releases().
   This is useful for catching locking bugs in error paths.
 - Support for __guarded_by() is enabled. If a member variable is annotated
   with __guarded_by(lock), the compiler will issue a warning if that member
   variable is accessed without holding 'lock'.

Additionally, a patch is included that suppresses KCSAN complaints about SCSI
host state changes.

More information about lock context analysis is available in the cover letter of
[PATCH v5 00/36] Compiler-Based Context- and Locking-Analysis
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251219154418.3592607-1-elver@google.com/).

Please consider this patch series for the next merge window.

Thanks,

Bart.

Changes compared to v3:
 - Left out all changes except those for the SCSI core and the UFS driver.

Changes compared to v2:
 - Added patch "scsi: core: Pass the SCSI host pointer directly".
 - Corrected several annotations that had missing or extra ampersands (&).
 - Reduced the number of __assume_ctx_lock() statements.

Changes compared to v1:
 - Split patch "Enable lock context analysis" into one patch per driver.
