My understanding is that the word Celsius is more common than centigrade so please use Celsius instead of centigrade. See also https://www.brannan.co.uk/celsius-centigrade-and-fahrenheit/

+ allowable range is [-79..170].
+ The temperature readings are in decimal degrees Celsius.

+ Please note that the Tcase validity depends on the state of the
+ wExceptionEventControl attribute: it is up to the user to
+ verify that the applicable mask (TOO_HIGH_TEMP_EN, and / or
+ TOO_LOW_TEMP_EN) is set for the exception handling control.
+ This can be either done by ufs-bsg or ufs-debugfs.

Instead of making the user verify whether case_rough_temp is valid, please modify the kernel code such that case_rough_temp only reports a value if that value is valid. One possible approach is to make the show method return an error code if case_rough_temp is not valid. Another and probably better approach is to define a sysfs attribute group and to make case_rough_temp visible only if it is valid.

Modern compilers are good at deciding when to inline a function so please leave out the 'inline' keyword from the above function.

+static bool ufshcd_case_temp_legal(struct ufs_hba *hba)\

Please use another word than "legal" since the primary meaning of "legal" is "of or relating to law".

+ ufshcd_rpm_get_sync(hba);
+ ret = ufshcd_query_attr(hba, UPIU_QUERY_OPCODE_READ_ATTR,
+ QUERY_ATTR_IDN_EE_CONTROL, 0, 0, &ee_mask);
+ ufshcd_rpm_put_sync(hba);

Are there any ufshcd_query_attr() calls that are not surrounded by ufshcd_rpm_{get,put}_sync()? If not, please move the ufshcd_rpm_{get,put}_sync() calls into ufshcd_query_attr().

Thanks,

Bart.
