We are following the Hardware Programming Guide written by the platform 
designers with regard to UFS, including the reset logic.  I really don't 
think the reset logic is an issue here.

The evidence seems simple.  We have properly described in DT all the 
regulators that are consumed by the UFS host controller, and by 
extension, the UFS storage chip as well.

By default, with no kernel changes, UFS does not work.

Marc and I debugged the issue, and found that the VCCQ regulator was not 
being handled properly, and reverting the change we are discussing fixes 
the the VCCQ regulator issue, and as a result UFS works.

Again, despite the fact that we may have a Samsung UFS storage chip, 
which triggers the quirk, the UFS host controller which talks to that 
chip requires VCCQ, therefore this quirk breaks us.

No

Already done.  The schematic defines vcc, vccq, and vccq2.  All of those 
are listed in DT, and have been since Marc and I have been trying to 
utilize UFS.

The PMIC is required the boot the board.  I doubt the board will be 
functional with the PMIC disabled.

Our analysis is that VCCQ is required and 
60f0187031c05e04cbadffb62f557d0ff3564490 prevents the proper 
configuration of VCCQ, thus a required resource (VCCQ) is not in the 
proper state.
