Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ata: ahci: Enable DEVSLP by default on SLP_S0 support

One of the requirement for modern x86 system to enter lowest power mode
(SLP_S0) is SATA IP block to be off. This is true even during when
platform is suspended to idle and not only in opportunistic (runtime)
suspend.
This series is to enable DEVSLP by default.

-current (non-rfc) series
Implemented suggestions from Hans
- no override of policy set via module param
- Overide lpm policy per host not global policy
- changed the new policy name to "min_power_with_partial"

rfc-v2
- As suggested by Hans, it is possible to have ASP with DEVSLP, so
add a new state.
- Removed usage of mem_sleep_current, instead just rely on low power
idle flag. Don't feel good to EXPORT from core suspend code.
- Depending host policy to decide if we enable DEVSLP by default.
