[PATCH] ata: ahci: Enable/Disable ATA Staggered Spin-up by default

[Eric Curtin]

On some kernels tuned for performance, you want to always favour
spin-up time versus power draw. This adds the ability to always favour
spin-up time by default (disabling Staggered Spin-up favours
performance, rather than power draw).

Regardless of whether this is enabled or disabled the
libahci.ignore_sss option will override any kernel config.
