Hi Avri,

Thanks for having taken a look. An important goal of this patch series 
is to optimize the UFS driver. This patch series should make the UFS 
driver slightly faster because it removes several pointer dereferences 
from the hot path and because it organizes all request-related data in a 
single contiguous address range.

Bart.
