<id>71e19cde733daa870f22d47791378735e4f6cab2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 885bd765963b42c380db442db7f1c0f2a26076fa upstream.

After issuing a PHY_START request to the QMP, the hardware documentation
states that the software should wait for the PCS_READY_STATUS to become
1.

With the introduction of commit c9b589791fc1 ("phy: qcom: Utilize UFS
reset controller") an additional 1ms delay was introduced between the
start request and the check of the status bit. This greatly increases
the chances for the hardware to actually becoming ready before the
status bit is read.

The result can be seen in that UFS PHY enabling is now reported as a
failure in 10% of the boots on SDM845, which is a clear regression from
the previous rare/occasional failure.

This patch fixes the "break condition" of the poll to check for the
correct state of the status bit.

Unfortunately PCIe on 8996 and 8998 does not specify the mask_pcs_ready
register, which means that the code checks a bit that's always 0. So the
patch also fixes these, in order to not regress these targets.

Fixes: 73d7ec899bd8 ("phy: qcom-qmp: Add msm8998 PCIe QMP PHY support")
Fixes: e78f3d15e115 ("phy: qcom-qmp: new qmp phy driver for qcom-chipsets")

Prior to the adoption of SPDX, it was difficult for tools to determine
the correct license due to incomplete or badly formatted license text.
The SPDX solves this issue, assuming people can correctly spell
"SPDX-License-Identifier" although this assumption is broken in some
places.

Since scripts/spdxcheck.py parses only lines that exactly matches to
the correct tag, it cannot (should not) detect this kind of error.

If the correct tag is missing, scripts/checkpatch.pl warns like this:

 WARNING: Missing or malformed SPDX-License-Identifier tag in line *

So, people should notice it before the patch submission, but in reality
broken tags sometimes slip in. The checkpatch warning is not useful for
checking the committed files globally since large number of files still
have no SPDX tag.

Also, I am not sure about the legal effect when the SPDX tag is broken.

Anyway, these typos are absolutely worth fixing. It is pretty easy to
find suspicious lines by grep.

  $ git grep --not -e SPDX-License-Identifier --and -e SPDX- -- \
