I don't understand your logic.  The ufs code made a design choice to
consolidate most headers for the hcd code in a local include (ufshcd.h),
which includes module.h, so why would they explicitly need it here as
well?  And if we follow your logic, why wouldn't they also need to
duplicate everything else (like the scsi includes)?
