+Subject: PCI: Rework ASPM disable code
+
+From: Matthew Garrett <mjg at redhat.com>
+
+commit 3c076351c4027a56d5005a39a0b518a4ba393ce2 upstream.
+
+Right now we forcibly clear ASPM state on all devices if the BIOS indicates
+that the feature isn't supported. Based on the Microsoft presentation
+"PCI Express In Depth for Windows Vista and Beyond", I'm starting to think
+that this may be an error. The implication is that unless the platform
+grants full control via _OSC, Windows will not touch any PCIe features -
+including ASPM. In that case clearing ASPM state would be an error unless
+the platform has granted us that control.
+
+This patch reworks the ASPM disabling code such that the actual clearing
+of state is triggered by a successful handoff of PCIe control to the OS.
+The general ASPM code undergoes some changes in order to ensure that the
+ability to clear the bits isn't overridden by ASPM having already been
+disabled. Further, this theoretically now allows for situations where
+only a subset of PCIe roots hand over control, leaving the others in the
+BIOS state.
+
+It's difficult to know for sure that this is the right thing to do -
+there's zero public documentation on the interaction between all of these
+components. But enough vendors enable ASPM on platforms and then set this
+bit that it seems likely that they're expecting the OS to leave them alone.
+
+Measured to save around 5W on an idle Thinkpad X220.
