This is not entirely accurate. Those are vendor/board specific,
As the original commit log indicates:
" vendor/board specific and hence determined with
 the help of compatible property in device tree."

I would rather have this new vop:
void    (*device_reset)(struct ufs_hba *), Or whatever, 
actively set in ufs_hba_variant_ops, rather than ufshcd_init_device_reset
failing as part of the default init flow.
