Hi Bean,

By pending tasks here, it means the requests sent down from scsi/block
layer,
but have not yet been handled by ufs driver(cmd->scsi_done() have not
been called yet for these requests).
For these requests, although removed by host and UFS device in their HW
queues(doorbell),
UFS driver still needs to complete them from SW side(call
cmd->scsi_done() for each one of them) to
let upper layer know that they are finished(although not successfully)
to avoid hitting
timeout of these pending tasks. I hope I make my explanation clearly.

Best Regards,
Can Guo.
