Subject: [PATCH RFC v4 02/11] scsi: ufs: qcom: Perform read back after
 writing REG_UFS_SYS1CLK_1US

Currently after writing to REG_UFS_SYS1CLK_1US a mb() is used to ensure
that write has gone through to the device.

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. Because the mb()'s
purpose wasn't to add extra ordering (on top of the ordering guaranteed
by writel()/readl()), it can safely be removed.
