In my understanding, this code seems to check incorrect access to not
supportted features (e.g. WB) via buff_len value from
ufshcd_map_desc_id_to_length().
However, since buff_len is initialized as QUERY_DESC_MAX_SIZE and is
updated later by ufshcd_update_desc_length(), So it is impossible to find
incorrect access by checking buff_len at first time.

Thanks,
