Subject: [PATCH 2/2] nvme: relax APST default max latency to 100ms

Christoph Hellwig suggests we should to make APST work out of the box.
Hence relax the the default max latency to make them able to enter
deepest power state on default.

Here are id-ctrl excerpts from two high latency NVMes:

ssvid   : 0x1b4b
mn      : CX2-GB1024-Q11 NVMe LITEON 1024GB
