This patch adds configfs support to provision UFS device at
runtime. This feature can be primarily useful in factory or
assembly line as some devices may be required to be configured
multiple times during initial system development phase.
Configuration Descriptors can be written multiple times until
bConfigDescrLock attribute is zero.

Configuration descriptor buffer consists of Device and Unit
descriptor configurable parameters which are parsed from vendor
specific provisioning file and then passed via configfs node at
runtime to provision ufs device.
CONFIG_CONFIGFS_FS and CONFIG_SCSI_UFS_PROVISION needs to be enabled
for using this feature.

Usage:
1) To read current configuration descriptor with index X
(where index X can be 0/1/2/3) :
cat /config/<device_name>/ufs_config_desc_X

2) To write configuration descriptor with index X :
echo <config_desc_buf> > /config/<device_name>/ufs_config_desc_X

Hi Sayali,
Can you try both of your patches with "make allmodconfig". There seem
to be a few issues compiling in that configuration. Also, as it stands
this file is either not compiled in, or baked into the kernel, where
it really should go into the driver. Check out the patch below for how
Guenter patched things up in our tree:

shttps://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/1255524
[Sayali] : the change pointed by you above looks good to me and will update it in my patch as well. ufs-configfs should be part of ufshcd-core.
I tried using "make allmodconfig".(basically updating like below for test) + include change pointed above and it works fine.
