Please no ! I know that the Broadcom mpt3sas driver has this attribute named
sas_ncq_prio_*, but I really think that it was a very unfortunate choice as that
makes it different from the attribute for libata, which does not have the sas_
prefix. That means that an attribute controlling a *device* feature has 2
different name depending on the hba used for the device. That is super annoying
to deal with in user space... So please, let's name this ncq_prio_*, same as for
AHCI. SAS does have a concept of priority, but that is for data frames and has
nothing to do with the actual command being transported. So mixing up sas and
ncq in the same name is only confusing...

For the Broadcom mpt3sas driver, we can define a link to have that same name for
the attributes to have everything consistent.

kstrtobool() is I think the standard way of parsing bool sysfs attributes.
