Subject: [RFT] ufs: qcom: drop custom Android boot parameters

The QCOM UFS driver requires an androidboot.bootdevice command line
argument matching the UFS device name.  If the name is different, it
refuses to probe.  Thise androidboot.bootdevice is provided by
stock/vendor (from an Android-based device) bootloader.

This does not make sense from Linux point of view.  Driver should be
able to boot regardless of bootloader.  Driver should not depend on some
Android custom environment data.
