[PATCH v2 1/2] ufs: always notify POST_CHANGE even on gear switch failure

From: Peter Wang <peter.wang at mediatek.com>

Previously, POST_CHANGE was only notified on a successful gear switch.
This could leave the host in an inconsistent state if resources were
acquired in PRE_CHANGE (e.g. disabling auto-hibern8) but never
released due to a missing POST_CHANGE.

Fix this by always calling POST_CHANGE regardless of the gear switch
result. On failure, pass dev_req_params = NULL to signal that there is
nothing to apply; hosts that receive NULL simply skip their post work.

Update the affected vendor drivers (ufs-exynos and ufshcd-pci) to
guard their POST_CHANGE logic with a NULL check so they correctly
handle the failure case.

Fixes: f5ca8d0c7a63 ("scsi: ufs: host: mediatek: Disable auto-hibern8 during power mode changes")
