Subject: [PATCH 0/8] Add Host control mode to HPB

The HPB spec defines 2 control modes - device control mode and host
control mode. In oppose to device control mode, in which the host obey
to whatever recommendation received from the device - In host control
mode, the host uses its own algorithms to decide which regions should
be activated or inactivated.

We kept the host managed heuristic simple and concise.

Aside from adding a by-spec functionality, host control mode entails
some further potential benefits: makes the hpb logic transparent and
readable, while allow tuning / scaling its various parameters, and
utilize system-wide info to optimize HPB potential.

This series is based on Samsung's V18 device-control HPB1.0 driver, see
msg-id: 20201222015704epcms2p643f0c5011064a7ce56b08331811a8509@...ms2p6
in lore.kernel.org. The patches are also available in wdc ufs repo:
https://github.com/westerndigitalcorporation/WDC-UFS-REPO/tree/hpb-v18

This version was tested on Galaxy S20, and Xiaomi Mi10 pro.
Your meticulous review and testing is mostly welcome and appreciated.

Thanks,
Avri
