Hi Aishwarya,

Thanks for testing and reporting this issue. Can you please
test with the attached fix and let me know if it helps.

Subject: [PATCH V1] scsi: ufs: qcom : Fix NULL pointer dereference in
 ufs_qcom_setup_clocks

Fix a NULL pointer dereference in ufs_qcom_setup_clocks due to an
uninitialized 'host' variable. The variable 'phy' is now assigned
after confirming 'host' is not NULL.
