What are "non-EH" commands? The SCSI error handler only starts its
error handling strategy after all pending commands have either timed
out or completed.

I think that you are misunderstanding the code. The purpose of the
SCMD_STATE_COMPLETE check is to prevent double completions of SCSI
commands.

In SDB mode, clearing UTRLDBR will cause all pending commands to be
requeued because the OCS member is initialized to 
OCS_INVALID_COMMAND_STATUS and because ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status()
translates this status value into DID_REQUEUE << 16. I'm concerned
that this approach may cause the deadlines for SCSI commands to be
exceeded. Hence my proposal for MCQ mode not to requeue pending SCSI
commands but instead to let the SCSI error handler decide what to do
with these commands.

Thanks,

Bart.
