Currently, the doorbell is written to and a wmb() is used to commit it
immediately.

wmb() ensures that the write completes before following writes occur,
but completion doesn't mean that it isn't stored in a buffer somewhere.
The recommendation for ensuring this bit has taken effect on the device
is to perform a read back to force it to make it all the way to the
device. This is documented in device-io.rst and a talk by Will Deacon on
this can be seen over here:

Let's do that to ensure the bit hits the device. Because the wmb()'s
purpose wasn't to add extra ordering (on top of the ordering guaranteed
by writel()/readl()), it can safely be removed.

Fixes: ad1a1b9cd67a ("scsi: ufs: commit descriptors before setting the doorbell")
