Currently, the only way a user can determine if a SATA device supports NCQ priority is to try to enable the use of this feature using the ncq_prio_enable sysfs device attribute. If enabling the feature fails, it is because the device does not support NCQ priority. Otherwise, the feature is enabled and success indicates that the device supports NCQ priority. Improve this odd interface by introducing the read-only ncq_prio_supported sysfs device attribute to indicate if a SATA device supports NCQ priority. The value of this attribute reflects the status of device flag ATA_DFLAG_NCQ_PRIO, which is set only for devices supporting NCQ priority. Add this new sysfs attribute to the device attributes group of libahci and libata-sata.
