This patch should have been split into one patch for the SCSI core and
another patch for the UFS driver.

I see an issue with this patch: a new attribute has been introduced in
struct Scsi_Host but it is not used by the SCSI core. That seems weird
to me.

Another comment I have about this patch is why to restrict the BIO size
(blk_queue_set_limit_bio_size(q, shost->limit_bio_size)) only for UFS
devices? Aren't all block devices, including NVMe devices, expected to
benefit from limiting the BIO size if no stacking is involved? How about
the following approach?
* In blk_queue_max_hw_sectors(), set the maximum BIO size to
  max_hw_sectors. As you may know blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() may be
  called by any block driver (stacking and non-stacking).
* In blk_stack_limits(), set the maximum BIO size to UINT_MAX. Stacking
  block drivers must call blk_stack_limits().

Thanks,

Bart.
