V3 was moving host_sem from wl_system_suspend/resume() to
ufshcd_suspend_prepare()/ufshcd_resume_complete(). It is to
make sure error handling does not run concurrenly with system
PM, since error handling is recovering/clearing runtime PM
errors of all the scsi devices under hba (in patch #8). Having the
error handling doing so (in patch 8) is because runtime PM framework
may save the runtime errors of the supplier to one or more consumers (
unlike the children - parent relationship), for example if wlu resume
fails, sda and/or other scsi devices may save the resume error, then
they will be left runtime suspended permanently.
