The host controller only sets the OCS field to OCS_ABORTED in MCQ mode
if the host controller successfully aborted the command. If the
abort TMF is submitted to the UFS device, the OCS field won't be changed
into OCS_ABORTED. In SDB mode, the host controller does not modify the 
OCS field either.

Hmm ... my understanding is that clearing a bit from UTRLCLR is only
allowed *after* a command has been aborted and also that clearing a bit
from this register does not abort a command but only frees the resources
in the host controller associated with the command.

I think there is only one case when the SCSI core needs to be requested
to requeue a command, namely when the UFS driver decided to initiate the
abort (ufshcd_abort_all()).

The above change is misplaced. ufshcd_try_to_abort_task() can be called
when the SCSI core decides to abort a command while
abort_initiated_by_err must not be set in that case. Please move the
above code block into ufshcd_abort_one().

Regarding the word "host" in the above comment block: the host is the 
Android device. I think that in the above comment "host" should be
changed into "host controller".

The "abort_initiated_by_err" name still seems confusing to me. Please
make it more clear that this flag is only set if the UFS error handler
decides to abort a command. How about "abort_initiated_by_eh"?

Please also make the description of this member variable more clear.

Thanks,

Bart.
