ata: libata-core: Reduce the number of messages signaling broken LPM

ata_dev_config_lpm() prints the message "LPM support broken, forcing
max_power" for devices that have the ATA_QUIRK_NOLPM quirk flag set.
This messages is repeated for every device revalidation, which is not
necessary, but also erroneously printed for devices without a broken LPM
support when connected to a port that does not support LPM (e.g. because
the port is an external one with hotplug capability).

Since in all cases the device port target_lpm_policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER, avoid the "LPM broken" message repetition and
erroneous output by generating it only if the port target_lpm_policy is
not already set to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER.

This change will suppress the "LPM broken" message for genuine cases of
a device having broken LPM if the initial LPM policy is set to
ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER through CONFIG_SATA_MOBILE_LPM_POLICY. This is not a
problem as the ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER policy implies that LPM is disabled and
unused, which is safe for devices with broken LPM.
