scsi: ufs: mediatek: Back up idle timer in per-instance struct

This commit moves the backup of the auto-hibernate idle timer from a
static local variable to a per-instance host struct member. This ensures
correct behavior when multiple instances of the driver are loaded.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does this sequence permanently
disable Auto-Hibern8 if a power change fails?

If a DME power mode change fails, the UFS core in ufshcd_change_power_mode()
skips the POST_CHANGE notification:

drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c:ufshcd_change_power_mode() {
    ...
    ret = ufshcd_dme_change_power_mode(hba, pwr_mode);
    if (!ret)
        ufshcd_vops_pwr_change_notify(hba, POST_CHANGE, pwr_mode);
    ...
}

Because POST_CHANGE is skipped, the hardware register remains at 0 (since
it was disabled right below by ufs_mtk_auto_hibern8_disable).

On the next power mode change attempt, PRE_CHANGE will run again and read the
current register value (0) into host->ahit, overwriting the valid backup.
When POST_CHANGE eventually succeeds, it will write 0 back to the register,
leaving Auto-Hibern8 permanently disabled until a reset or suspend/resume.
