That's fine. While the spec clearly calls out the ASPM L1.2 Enable bit here, I
see no harm in including PCI-PM L1.2 in that check. This is what the code
already does in aspm_l1ss_init().

The issue is the mixed used of two different types of flags that don't have the
same meaning. 'state' contains PCIE_LINK_STATE flags which are part of the
caller API to the pci_<enabled/disable>_link_state() functions. The ASPM_STATE
flags are used internally to aspm.c to track all states and their meaningful
combinations such as ASPM_STATE_L1_2_MASK which includes ASPM L1.2 and PCI-PM
L1.2. You should not do bit operations between them.

Also, you should not require that the timings be calculated only if L1_2 is
enabled. You should calculate the timings as long as it's capable. This is also
what aspm_l1ss_init() does.

The confusion might be over the fact that you are having
__pci_enable_link_state() call aspm_calc_l12_info(). This should have been
handled during initialization of the link in aspm_l1ss_init() and I'm not sure
why it didn't. Maybe it's because, for VMD, ASPM default state would have
started out all disabled and this somehow led to aspm_l1ss_init() not getting
called. But looking through the code I don't see it. It would be great if you
can confirm why they weren't calculated before.
