[PATCH] r8169: add enable_aspm parameter

[AceLan Kao]

We have many commits in the driver which enable and then disable ASPM
function over and over again.
   commit b75bb8a5b755 ("r8169: disable ASPM again")
   commit 0866cd15029b ("r8169: enable ASPM on RTL8106E")
   commit 94235460f9ea ("r8169: Align ASPM/CLKREQ setting function with vendor driver")
   commit aa1e7d2c31ef ("r8169: enable ASPM on RTL8168E-VL")
   commit f37658da21aa ("r8169: align ASPM entry latency setting with vendor driver")
   commit a99790bf5c7f ("r8169: Reinstate ASPM Support")
   commit 671646c151d4 ("r8169: Don't disable ASPM in the driver")
   commit 4521e1a94279 ("Revert "r8169: enable internal ASPM and clock request settings".")
   commit d64ec841517a ("r8169: enable internal ASPM and clock request settings")

This function is very important for production, and if we can't come out
a solution to make both happy, I'd suggest we add a parameter in the
driver to toggle it.
