[RFC PATCH] nvme: add NO APST quirk for Kioxia device

This particular Kioxia device times out and aborts I/O during any load,
but it's more easily observable with discards (fstrim).

The device gets to a state that is also not possible to use "nvme set-feature"
to disable APST. Booting with nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency=0 solves the issue.

We had a dozen or so of these behaving this same way on customer
environment.
