[RFC PATCH v4 0/4] PCI/ASPM: Remove struct aspm_latency

[Saheed O. Bolarinwa]

From: "Bolarinwa O. Saheed" <refactormyself@xxxxxxxxx>

To validate and set link latency capability, `struct aspm_latency` and
related members defined within `struct pcie_link_state` are used.
However, since there are not many access to theses values, it is
possible to directly access and compute these values.

Doing this will also reduce the dependency on `struct pcie_link_state`.

The series removes `struct aspm_latency` and related members within
`struct pcie_link_state`. All latencies are now calculated when needed.


VERSION CHANGES:
- v2:
»       - directly access downstream by calling `pci_function_0()`
»         instead of using the `struct pcie_link_state`

- v3:
»       - rebase on Linux 5.15-rc2

- v4 (this version)
	- Create a seprate path to move pci_function_0() upward
