msm8996: qcom-qmp: apq8096-db820c fails to boot, reset back to fastboot and locks up

[Paolo Pisati]

>From time to time, my apq8096-db820c fails to boot to userspace, reset back to
fastboot and locks up: to easily reproduce the issue, i'm boot looping using a
cron job with a 1 min reboot entry on the board while leaving a "while 1; do
fastboot boot boot.img; done" on the host pc.

The issue is present in mainline up to 5.2-rc4, using defconfig and:

CONFIG_SCSI_UFS_QCOM=y
CONFIG_PHY_QCOM_QMP=y
CONFIG_PHY_QCOM_UFS=y

but was present in previous releases too (e.g. 4.14., 4.19, etc qcom-lt or
mainline), where it's even easier to reproduce (e.g. takes way less reboots to
trigger it).

These are the last lines printed out:
