Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 01/11] scsi: ufs: qcom: Perform read back after writing reset bit

Currently, the reset bit for the UFS provided reset controller (used by
its phy) is written to, and then a mb() happens to try and ensure that
hit the device. Immediately afterwards a usleep_range() occurs.

mb() ensure that the write completes, but completion doesn't mean that
it isn't stored in a buffer somewhere. The recommendation for
ensuring this bit has taken effect on the device is to perform a read
back to force it to make it all the way to the device. This is
documented in device-io.rst and a talk by Will Deacon on this can
be seen over here:

    https://youtu.be/i6DayghhA8Q?si=MiyxB5cKJXSaoc01&t=1678

Let's do that to ensure the bit hits the device. By doing so and
guaranteeing the ordering against the immediately following
usleep_range(), the mb() can safely be removed.
