This makes sense only in combination with patch 2. However I think patch 1
should be independent of patch 2. Especially if we consider patch 1 a fix
that is applied to stable whilst patch 2 is an improvement for next.

I don't see what this part of the patch changes. Can you elaborate on why
this is needed?

I think this part should be sufficient to fix the behavior. because what
I think currently happens:

1. original status: policy powersupersave, nothing disabled -> L1 + L1SS active
2. disable L1: L1 disabled, pcie_config_aspm_link() disabled L1 and L1SS
w/o adding L1SS to link-> aspm_disabled
3. enable one L1SS state: aspm_attr_store_common() removes L1 from
link->aspm_disabled -> link->aspm_disabled is empty, resulting in
L1 + L1SS being active
