At the moment libata doesn't pass pm_message_t down ata_device_suspend.
This causes drives to be powered down when we just want a freeze,
causing unnecessary wear and tear. This patch gets pm_message_t passed
down so that it can be used to determine whether to power down the
drive.

Prepared against git at the time of writing. Please apply.

Works very well here for me, and long overdue it was!

Thanks, Nigel!
