This series makes UFS RPMB work out of the box with an OP-TEE that implements the standard eMMC RPMB key-derivation flow, without requiring any fundamental changes on the OP-TEE side.
RPMB provides an authenticated, replay-protected storage area whose security relies on a secret authentication key. In our setup that key is never exposed to the kernel: OP-TEE derives it in the secure world from its hardware-unique key and a device identifier (dev_id) that the RPMB core hands down. OP-TEE's implementation targets eMMC, where dev_id is the 16-byte eMMC CID, and both the fixed length and the raw-CID layout are baked into its key derivation.
Two things stand in the way of reusing that same, unmodified OP-TEE flow for UFS RPMB:
1. On a cold boot the very first frame sent to the RPMB well-known LU comes back with a power-on UNIT ATTENTION (ASC 0x29), which the SCSI core reports rather than retries. RPMB has no earlier guaranteed access that could clear the condition first, so RPMB fails on every power cycle. Patch 1 asks the SCSI core to retry the power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN.
2. The UFS RPMB id is "<device_id>-R<region>", which is variable length and longer than 16 bytes. Passing it verbatim would tie the derived key to a length OP-TEE does not expect and diverge from the fixed eMMC CID ABI. Patch 2 hashes it into a fixed 16-byte dev_id with blake2b, keeping the key stable and unique per region while matching the eMMC CID layout OP-TEE relies on. The hash algorithm and input string are thus part of the key-derivation ABI and must stay stable.
With both patches, UFS RPMB is functional from the first access after a cold boot and derives keys through the existing eMMC-style OP-TEE flow, (requires minimal OP-TEE changes pending on the CID proposal done here).

v4: * ufs: rpmb: retry power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN: open-code the power-on ASC 0x29 (with a naming comment) as the rest of the SCSI tree does, instead of a UFS_RPMB_ASC_POWER_ON define; add a UFS_RPMB_UA_RETRIES define for the retry count; reworded the commit message. * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id: reworded the commit message; no functional change.
v3: * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id: hash into a stack buffer instead of a kzalloc'd one; rpmb_dev_register() copies dev_id, so the heap allocation and its cleanup were unnecessary.
v2: * ufs: rpmb: replace blake2s with blake2b so that the same support can be added to u-boot (CRYPTO_LIB_BLAKE2B) * added links to U-boot and OP-TEE changes.
v1: * ufs: rpmb: retry power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN: - fix using uses SCMD_FAILURE_ASC_ANY to retry any Unit Attention - fix unused variable * ufs: rpmb: use a fixed-length RPMB dev_id - fix selecting a non-existent Kconfig symbol

After a power cycle, the first command sent to any UFS logical unit completes with CHECK CONDITION reporting a power-on UNIT ATTENTION. The SCSI core surfaces this condition to the caller rather than retrying it.
For the RPMB well-known LU the first command after boot is the first RPMB frame, and RPMB has no earlier, guaranteed access that could clear the condition beforehand. The power-on UNIT ATTENTION therefore reaches RPMB and fails that first frame, breaking RPMB on every cold boot.
The RPMB WLUN needs the power-on UNIT ATTENTION to be retried so that RPMB works from the very first access after a power cycle.

The RPMB authentication key is derived from the dev_id handed to the RPMB subsystem. OP-TEE implements the eMMC RPMB flow, where the dev_id is the eMMC CID: a fixed 16-byte value the key derivation depends on.
The UFS RPMB id is "<device_id>-R<region>", which is variable length and longer than 16 bytes. Handing it to the RPMB subsystem as-is would tie the derived key to a length OP-TEE does not expect and diverge from the fixed-CID eMMC ABI, forcing OP-TEE to be taught about variable-length UFS ids.
A fixed 16-byte dev_id is needed so the derived key stays stable and unique per region while matching the eMMC CID layout OP-TEE relies on, keeping the key-derivation ABI identical with no OP-TEE change. The reduction to a fixed 16 bytes must also be reproducible by the bootloaders (such as U-Boot) that derive the same dev_id.
