Thanks. I think I'll exclude this one from this series.
I want it to be clear that all instances are about removing redundant host_lock calls before register access.
Here, it’s a bit different since need to verify that the UFS interrupt handler is not active on another CPU.
I will follow your suggestion - but in another series.
