[PATCH v3 2/2] ata: ahci: Protect users from setting policies their drives don't support

From: Mario Limonciello
Date: Mon Apr 04 2022 - 17:16:54 EST


As the default low power policy applies to more chipsets and drives, it's
important to make sure that drives actually support the policy that a user
selected in their kernel configuration.

If the drive doesn't support slumber, don't let the default policy for the
ATA port be `min_power` or `min_power_with_partial`.

v2->v3:
* Fix typo
* Try to reset to CONFIG_SATA_LPM_POLICY unless that's too aggressive
then take MED_POWER.
