[PATCH] scsi: ufs: core: Reset urgent_bkops_lvl to allow runtime PM power mode

[Won Jung]

This patch ensures that UFS Runtime PM can achieve power saving
after System PM suspend by resetting hba->urgent_bkops_lvl.
It also modifies ufshcd_bkops_exception_event_handler to avoid
setting urgent_bkops_lvl when status is 0, which helps maintain
optimal power management.

On UFS devices supporting UFSHCD_CAP_AUTO_BKOPS_SUSPEND,
a BKOPS exception event can lead to a situation
where UFS Runtime PM can't enter low-power mode states even
after the BKOPS exception has been resolved.

BKOPS exception with bkops status 0 occurs, the driver logs:
"ufshcd_bkops_exception_event_handler:
device raised urgent BKOPS exception for bkops status 0"

When a BKOPS exception occurs, `ufshcd_bkops_exception_event_handler()`
reads the BKOPS status and sets `hba->urgent_bkops_lvl` to
BKOPS_STATUS_NO_OP(0). This allows the device to perform Runtime PM
without changing the UFS power mode.
(`__ufshcd_wl_suspend(hba, UFS_RUNTIME_PM)`)

During system PM suspend, `ufshcd_disable_auto_bkops()` is called,
disabling auto bkops. After UFS System PM Resume,
when runtime PM attempts to suspend again,
`ufshcd_urgent_bkops()` is invoked. Since `hba->urgent_bkops_lvl`
remains at BKOPS_STATUS_NO_OP(0), `ufshcd_enable_auto_bkops()`
is triggered.

However, in `ufshcd_bkops_ctrl()`,
the driver compares the current BKOPS status with
`hba->urgent_bkops_lvl`, and only enables auto bkops
if `curr_status >= hba->urgent_bkops_lvl`.
Since both values are 0, the condition is met

As a result, `__ufshcd_wl_suspend(hba, UFS_RUNTIME_PM)` skips power mode
transitions and remains in an active state, preventing power saving even
though no urgent BKOPS condition exists.

Applied to 7.0/scsi-staging, thanks!
