Looking at the source commit for this behavior:

b1a9585cc396 ("ata: ahci: Enable DEVSLP by default on x86 with SLP_S0")

It was trying to set a policy tied to when the system is defaulting to
suspend to idle.

To try to match the spirit of the original request but not tying it to
the FADT, how about using pm_suspend_default_s2idle()?
