[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.12] scsi: ufs: host: mediatek: Fix shutdown/suspend race condition

[Sasha Levin]

From: Peter Wang <peter.wang at mediatek.com>

[ Upstream commit 014de20bb36ba03e0e0b0a7e0a1406ab900c9fda ]

Address a race condition between shutdown and suspend operations in the
UFS Mediatek driver. Before entering suspend, check if a shutdown is in
progress to prevent conflicts and ensure system stability.

## Analysis Summary

### 1. Commit Message Analysis
- **Subject**: "Fix shutdown/suspend race condition" - clearly indicates
  a bug fix
- **No Cc: stable tag** or **Fixes: tag** present
- The message describes preventing conflicts between shutdown and
  suspend operations "to ensure system stability"

### 2. Code Change Analysis
The fix is extremely small (4 lines):
```c
if (hba->shutting_down) {
    ret = -EBUSY;
    goto out;
}
```

**What it does**: At the start of `ufs_mtk_system_suspend()`, before
calling `ufshcd_system_suspend()` and performing Mediatek-specific
operations (voltage regulator LPM, MTCMOS control), it checks if
`hba->shutting_down` is true.

**Why the race is problematic**: The Mediatek driver performs hardware-
specific operations after calling the core suspend:
- `ufs_mtk_dev_vreg_set_lpm()` - controls voltage regulators
- `ufs_mtk_mtcmos_ctrl()` - controls power domains

If shutdown is in progress (`ufshcd_wl_shutdown()` sets
`hba->shutting_down = true`), these operations could conflict with the
shutdown sequence that also manipulates hardware state, causing
instability.

### 3. Classification
- **Bug fix**: Yes - fixes a real race condition
- **Not a feature**: No new functionality, APIs, or capabilities added
- Uses existing infrastructure (`shutting_down` flag already exists in
  `struct ufs_hba`)

### 4. Scope and Risk Assessment
- **Lines changed**: 4 lines (minimal)
- **Files touched**: 1 (driver-specific)
- **Risk**: Very low - adds a defensive early return that makes the
  driver more conservative
- **Regression potential**: Minimal - worst case is a suspend returning
  `-EBUSY` when it shouldn't, but this is very unlikely given the
  shutdown context

### 5. User Impact
- **Affected hardware**: Mediatek UFS storage (common in Android devices
  and embedded systems)
- **Severity**: Race conditions between suspend/shutdown can cause
  system hangs, crashes, or data corruption
- **Real-world scenario**: User initiates shutdown while system is
  suspending (e.g., closing laptop lid during shutdown)

### 6. Stability Indicators
- Signed-off-by Mediatek developer (Peter Wang)
- Acked-by another Mediatek engineer
- Merged by SCSI maintainer Martin K. Petersen

### 7. Concerns
- No explicit `Cc: stable` tag
- No `Fixes:` tag indicating when the bug was introduced
- No bug report or `Reported-by` tag showing users encountered this
  issue

### Decision Rationale

**In favor of backporting:**
- Fixes a real race condition that can cause system instability
- The fix is trivially correct and uses existing infrastructure
- Very small change with minimal regression risk
- Mediatek UFS is widely deployed in consumer devices
- Race conditions between power management paths (suspend/shutdown) are
  serious issues

**Against backporting:**
- No explicit stable tag from the maintainer
- No evidence of users hitting this bug in practice
- Other UFS drivers don't have similar protection (though they may not
  have the same post-suspend hardware operations)

The fix is clearly correct, surgical, and addresses a real class of bug
(PM race conditions). While lacking explicit stable markers, the fix
meets the stable kernel criteria: it's obviously correct, fixes a real
bug affecting system stability, and is small and contained.

**YES**
