0 is not documented. But there are sub-priority which are not directly
configured by user, but affect the system behavior.

Priority#: Critical – 1; high – 2; low – 3
 For ports with the same priority, the PoE Controller sets the
 sub-priority according to the logic port number. (Lower number gets
 higher priority).

Port priority affects:
1. Power-up order: After a reset, the ports are powered up according to
 their priority, highest to lowest, highest priority will power up first.
2. Shutdown order: When exceeding the power budget, lowest priority
 ports will turn off first.

Should we return sub priorities on the prio get request?

If i see it correctly, even if user do not actively configures priorities,
they are always present. For example port 0 will have always a Prio
higher than Port 10.
