I believe Intel would need to identify the state of the SOC to determine where
the PCIE problem actually occurs; on the way down or up.

As he said in the commit message it results in a hang.

Don't you need to check x86_vendor? Although extremely unlikely if you don't
check x86_vendor nothing to stop another X86 manufacturer from having a
design that has same model # as INTEL_FAM6_ALDERLAKE.

amdgpu.aspm is module wide not just for one card. That is it covers all AMD GPU cards
in the system. If it's set to 1 or pcie_aspm_enabled returns true it will enable for other
GPUs besides these.

There is the possibility to move this quirk check within " amdgpu_device_should_use_aspm"
and only match this combination when set to amdgpu.aspm is set to "-1" (the default), something
like this:

--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_device.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_device.c
@@ -1335,6 +1335,8 @@ bool amdgpu_device_should_use_aspm(struct amdgpu_device *adev)
default:
return false;
}
+ if (amdgpu_device_is_quirked_for_aspm(adev))
+ return false;
return pcie_aspm_enabled(adev->pdev);
}
