Hi Bart,

I'm not sure if I misunderstood your point. SCSI reset 
(ufshcd_eh_host_reset_handler) does indeed abort all commands
by trigger ufshcd_err_handler and call ufshcd_abort_all.
This shouldn't violate the SCSI API contract. But whether the 
subsequent re-queue (DID_REQUEUE) violates, I haven't seen any 
prohibition?

Because currently the UFS error handler (ufshcd_err_handler) 
directly re-queues (By set DID_REQUEUE) the unfinish command,
and err handler might be triggered in many places, for example, 
like UIC errors, directly resetting and re-queueing should be
reasonable and can be handled quickly. 

If it cannot directly re-queue, then ufshcd_eh_host_reset_handler
would need another similar function that does not handle re-queueing.
But this looks unnecessary, direct re-queuing seems safe?

Thanks
Peter
