[PATCH v5 3/7] PCI/ATS: Decouple pci_ats_supported() from pci_prepare_ats()

[Pranjal Shrivastava]

Currently, pci_prepare_ats() internally calls pci_ats_supported() and
returns -EINVAL if the device does not support ATS. While this provides
a safety check, it conflates support detection with configuration.

Update pci_prepare_ats() to remove the internal support check. This
decouples support verification from the configuration phase, ensuring
that drivers can distinguish between a device that does not support ATS
and one that has a true configuration error (e.g. STU mismatch).

Update the function documentation to mandate that callers must verify
ATS support (via pci_ats_supported()) before calling pci_prepare_ats().
