OK, got it.

However, in previous discussion, it is strongly objected to use
per-driver/device .use_blk_mq switch, so not sure if this way can
be accepted.

BTW, I just posted the runtime PM enablement patches[1] for blk-mq,
and I verified that it works fine and passed blktests & xfstest & my
other sanity tests, could you try it on UFS?
