A patch description should not only explain what has been changed but 
also why a change is being made. Information about why support is being 
added for the androidboot.bootdevice parameter in the Qualcomm UFS host 
controller driver is missing from the patch description.

Please also address Christoph's comment about this new command-line 
parameter not being used anywhere in the upstream kernel tree.

Thanks,

Bart.
