UFS spec version 2.1 was published more than 10 years ago. It is
vanishingly unlikely that even there are out there platforms that uses
earlier host controllers, let alone that those ancient platforms will
ever run a V6.10 kernel. Thus, remove support of host controllers prior
to UFS2.1.

According to this website, Pixel 1 devices have a UFSHCI 2.0 controller:

smartphones that have a UFSHCI 2.0 controller. Hence, I'm not sure we
can drop support for UFSHCI 2.0 controllers from the kernel.

Thanks,
