Guarding a wake_up() call with a waitqueue_active() check is an
anti-pattern. Please don't do that and call wake_up() directly.
Additionally, wake_up() includes a barrier if it wakes up a kernel
thread so the smp_mb__after_atomic() can be left out if the
waitqueue_active() call is removed.

Is this a typo? Should "proving" perhaps be changed into "probing"?

Why is a dedicated workqueue needed? Why are the standard workqueues not
good enough?

What happens if a SCSI command is retried and hence ufsf_ops_prep_fn()
is called multiple times for the same SCSI command?

Thanks,
