Host sends MODE_SENSE_10 with caching mode page, to check if the device
supports the cache feature.
UFS JEDEC standards require DBD field to be set to 1.

This patch allows LLD to define the setting of DBD if required.

This simplifies to:

-ÂÂ } else if (sdp->type == TYPE_RBC) {

+ÂÂÂ } else if (sdp->type == TYPE_RBC || sdp->host->set_dbd_for_caching) {

IDK what happened with my mailer sending out an older infant copy (blame on fumble fingers). My final copy was instead the simplification:

+ÂÂÂ dbd = sdp->host->set_dbd_for_caching ? 8 : 0;
