Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17] scsi: ufs: host: mediatek: Fix adapt issue after PA_Init

From: Alice Chao <alice.chao@...iatek.com>

[ Upstream commit d73836cb8535b3078e4d2a57913f301baec58a33 ]

Address the issue where the host does not send adapt to the device after
PA_Init success. Ensure the adapt process is correctly initiated for
devices with IP version MT6899 and above, resolving communication issues
between the host and device.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

YES

- What it fixes: The host wasn’t initiating the adaptation phase after a
  successful PA_Init, causing communication/link reliability issues on
  newer MediaTek UFS IPs. The patch explicitly triggers adapt for those
  chips.

- Where it changes code:
  - Adds an adapt trigger in `ufs_mtk_post_link()` by setting
    `VS_DEBUGOMC` bit `0x100` for IP versions MT6899 and newer:
    `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-mediatek.c:1557-1566`.
  - The adapt step runs in the post-link stage via
    `ufs_mtk_link_startup_notify()` → `POST_CHANGE` →
    `ufs_mtk_post_link()`: `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-mediatek.c:1576-1583`.
  - The IP version gating this logic is well-defined in the platform
    header: `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-mediatek.h:208-217`.
  - The UniPro vendor attribute `VS_DEBUGOMC` is a standard symbol in
    the tree: `include/ufs/unipro.h:176`.

- How it works:
  - After link startup, for `host->ip_ver >= IP_VER_MT6899`, it reads
    `VS_DEBUGOMC`, ORs in `0x100`, and writes it back to trigger the
    device adapt: `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-mediatek.c:1559-1565`.
  - This is analogous to existing, targeted use of `VS_DEBUGOMC` for
    MT6989 (bit `0x10`) already in the pre-link path, demonstrating
    prior, chip-specific, safe use of the same attribute:
    `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-mediatek.c:1543-1550`.

- Why it’s a good stable backport:
  - Bugfix that affects users: Without adapt, devices on MT6899+ may
    exhibit link/communication issues after PA_Init, which is a
    functional defect rather than a new feature.
  - Small, contained change: Touches a single driver file and one
    function body in a guarded, post-link path.
  - Minimal risk: Gated by `host->ip_ver >= IP_VER_MT6899` so it does
    not affect older IPs; no API or architectural changes; leverages an
    existing attribute already used safely for a nearby IP generation.
  - Side effects are narrow and intended: It only sets a vendor-specific
    UniPro debug attribute after link-up on specific SoCs, then proceeds
    to the pre-existing UniPro clock gating enable, keeping previous
    sequencing intact.

- Notes on robustness:
  - The new `ufshcd_dme_get()`/`set()` calls do not check return values
    in `ufs_mtk_post_link()` (drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
    mediatek.c:1559-1565). While typical for benign post-link tuning
    where failures shouldn’t abort link-up, adding error checks would be
    slightly safer. However, given this is vendor-guarded and called
    post link-up, the practical risk is low and consistent with similar
    driver patterns.

- Stable criteria assessment:
  - Important bugfix: Yes (link/communication reliability on MT6899+).
  - Not a feature/No arch changes: Yes.
  - Minimal regression risk: Yes (chip-gated, vendor-specific).
  - Self-contained and small: Yes.
  - Explicit stable tag: Not present, but merits backport based on
    impact and scope.

Conclusion: This is a focused, SoC-gated fix that addresses a real
interoperability bug with minimal risk. It fits stable backporting
guidelines well.
