Subject: [PATCH v5.10] scsi: core: ufs: Fix a hang in the error handler

From: Sanjeev Yadav <sanjeev.y@...iatek.com>

[ Upstream commit 8a3514d348de87a9d5e2ac00fbac4faae0b97996 ]

ufshcd_err_handling_prepare() calls ufshcd_rpm_get_sync(). The latter
function can only succeed if UFSHCD_EH_IN_PROGRESS is not set because
resuming involves submitting a SCSI command and ufshcd_queuecommand()
returns SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY if UFSHCD_EH_IN_PROGRESS is set. Fix this
hang by setting UFSHCD_EH_IN_PROGRESS after ufshcd_rpm_get_sync() has
been called instead of before.
