Please indent __acquires() and __releases() annotations by one tab as is
done elsewhere in the kernel.

Is my understanding of the following correct?
- ufshcd_is_user_access_allowed() is not in the hot path and hence
should not be inline.
- The hba->shutting_down member variable is set from inside a shutdown
callback. Hence, the hba->shutting_down test can be left out since
no UFS sysfs attributes are accessed after shutdown has started.
- During system suspend, user space software is paused before the device
driver freeze callbacks are invoked. Hence, the hba->is_sys_suspended
check can be left out.
- If a LUN is runtime suspended, it should be resumed if accessed from
user space instead of failing user space accesses. In other words, the
hba->is_wlu_sys_suspended check seems inappropriate to me.
- If the HBA is not in an operational state, user space accesses
should be blocked until error handling has finished. After error
handling has finished, the user space access should fail if and only
if error handling failed.

Thanks,

Bart.
