The rtt-upiu packets precede any data-out upiu packets, thus
synchronizing the data input to the device: this mostly applies to write
operations, but there are other operations that requires rtt as well.

There are several rules binding this rtt - data-out dialog, specifically
There can be at most outstanding bMaxNumOfRTT such packets.  This might
have an effect on write performance (sequential write in particular), as
each data-out upiu must wait for its rtt sibling.

UFSHCI expects bMaxNumOfRTT to be min(bDeviceRTTCap, NORTT). However,
as of today, there does not appear to be no-one who sets it: not the
host controller nor the driver.  It wasn't an issue up to now:
bMaxNumOfRTT is set to 2 after manufacturing, and wasn't limiting the
write performance.

UFS4.0, and specifically gear 5 changes this, and requires the device to
be more attentive.  This doesn't come free - the device has to allocate
more resources to that end, but the sequential write performance
improvement is significant. Early measurements shows 25% gain when
moving from rtt 2 to 9. Therefore, set bMaxNumOfRTT to be
min(bDeviceRTTCap, NORTT) as UFSHCI expects.

v5 -> v6:
Use blk_mq_<un>freeze_queue to drain the queues (Bart)
Replace the rtt_set() vop by a max_num_rtt constant (Cristoph/Bart)

v4 -> v5:
Quiesce the queues before writing bMaxNumOfRTT (Bart)
Make bDeviceRTTCap available in ufshcd_device_params_init() (Bart)

v3 -> v4:
Allow bMaxNumOfRTT to be configured via sysfs (Bart)

v2 -> v3:
Allow platform vendors to take precedence having their own rtt
negotiation mechanism (Peter)

v1 -> v2:
bMaxNumOfRTT is a Persistent attribute - do not override if it was
written (Bean)

Avri Altman (3):
  scsi: ufs: Allow RTT negotiation
  scsi: ufs: Maximum RTT supported by the host driver
  scsi: ufs: sysfs: Make max_number_of_rtt read-write
