UFS will go through normal read, because regions are not active in the
device. The responses mabye different among different vendors. for
example, UFS device will raise a response to host to update the region
(in case of host mode) or inactivate it in case of device mode.

The best way is that inactivate the active regions in the host side in
the case the regions are not active in the device.

no, the regions in the device will be inactivated.

Yes, you are right. There will be a performance impact. I will look at
it, then back to you.

By the way, there is one issue in my patch, ignore that patch.

Kind regards,
