Can you clarify what you mean "hard-coded"? The descriptor size is initialized
as QUERY_DESC_MAX_SIZE, and updated in `ufshcd_update_desc_length`, which is
called with the actual size upon finishing `ufshcd_read_desc_param`.

The function you are removing - `ufs_bsg_get_query_desc_size` - doesn't seem to
reject requests on incompatible size, only to restrict the size of the query.
The way the code is written - if I read it right - will lead to truncation of
the response if the size of the requested response is less than the actual
descriptor size, but otherwise you should get full descriptor back.

Can you provide a specific example where you see the problem to arise?

Thanks,
Daniil
