[ Upstream commit 6d55af0f0740bf3d77943425fdafb77dc0fa6bb9 ]

On FSD platform, gating the reference clock (ref_clk) and putting the
UFS device in reset by asserting the reset signal during UFS suspend,
improves the power savings and ensures the PHY is fully turned off.

These operations are added as FSD specific suspend hook to avoid
unintended side effects on other SoCs supported by this driver.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

YES

- Adds FSD-only suspend hook: defines `fsd_ufs_suspend(struct exynos_ufs
  *ufs)` that gates the controller clocks and asserts the device reset
  line on suspend (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:1899`).
  - Gates clocks via `exynos_ufs_gate_clks(ufs)` (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
    exynos.c:1901`), which calls `exynos_ufs_ctrl_clkstop(ufs, true)`
    (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:202,204`).
  - `exynos_ufs_ctrl_clkstop()` sets the clock-stop enables and applies
    `CLK_STOP_MASK` to `HCI_CLKSTOP_CTRL` (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
    exynos.c:436-448`).
  - The `CLK_STOP_MASK` includes `REFCLK_STOP` and `REFCLKOUT_STOP`,
    ensuring the reference clock to the PHY is gated
    (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:61-69`).
- Asserts reset: writes `0` to `HCI_GPIO_OUT` on suspend
  (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:1902`), matching how a device reset is
  asserted (see `exynos_ufs_dev_hw_reset()` which pulses 0 then 1 on
  `HCI_GPIO_OUT`; `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:1558-1565`). This
  ensures the device and PHY are fully quiesced for maximal power
  savings.
- Scoped to FSD only: the new hook is wired into the FSD driver data via
  `.suspend = fsd_ufs_suspend` (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
  exynos.c:2158-2173`). Other SoCs use their own hooks (e.g., GS101:
  `.suspend = gs101_ufs_suspend`; `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
  exynos.c:2175-2191`), avoiding unintended side effects on non-FSD
  systems.
- Integrates correctly with UFS core PM:
  - The vendor suspend callback is invoked by the UFS core at the
    POST_CHANGE phase of suspend (`ufshcd_vops_suspend(hba, pm_op,
    POST_CHANGE)`), which happens after link/device PM state transitions
    but before clocks are fully managed by the core
    (`drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:9943-9951`).
  - On resume, the vendor resume callback runs before link transitions
    (`ufshcd_vops_resume()`; `drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:10006-10013`),
    and the core will either exit HIBERN8 or, if the link is off,
    perform a full `ufshcd_reset_and_restore()`
    (`drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:10018-10041`). During host (re)init, the
    Exynos driver pulses the device reset line high in
    `exynos_ufs_hce_enable_notify(PRE_CHANGE)` (`drivers/ufs/host/ufs-
    exynos.c:1612-1638`), matching the asserted reset in suspend.
- Mirrors proven pattern: GS101 already asserts the reset line during
  suspend (`gs101_ufs_suspend()` writes `0` to `HCI_GPIO_OUT`;
  `drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:1704-1707`). This change extends a
  similar, already-accepted approach to FSD while additionally gating
  ref_clk.
- Fix nature and impact:
  - Addresses a real-world issue: excessive power usage and PHY not
    fully turning off on FSD during suspend. Gating `ref_clk` and
    asserting reset directly target these symptoms, aligning with the
    commit message intent.
  - Minimal, contained change (one new static function + one driver-data
    hook). No API/ABI or architectural changes; no feature additions.
  - Low regression risk for non-FSD platforms since behavior is
    explicitly guarded by the FSD driver-data wiring.
- Stable criteria alignment:
  - Fixes a platform-specific power management defect that affects users
    (improper power savings and PHY not fully off).
  - Small, self-contained change in a single driver file with explicit
    platform scoping.
  - No broad subsystem risk; integrates with existing suspend/resume
    flows and uses established helpers (`exynos_ufs_gate_clks`,
    `HCI_GPIO_OUT` semantics).

Given the above, this is a good stable backport candidate for trees that
include the Exynos UFS driver with FSD support.
