Some embedded devices have the ability to control whether power is provided to the disks via the SATA power connector or not. If power resources are defined on ATA ports / devices in ACPI, we should try to set the power state to D0 before probing the disk to ensure that any power supply or power gate that may exist is providing power to the disk. An example for such devices would be newer synology NAS devices. Every disk slot has its own SATA power connector. Whether the connector is providing power is controlled via an gpio, which is *off by default*. Also the disk loses power on reboots. Add a new function, ata_acpi_port_power_on(), that will be used to power on the SATA power connector if usable ACPI power resources on the associated ATA port / device are found. It will be called right before probing the port, therefore the disk will be powered on just in time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
