I think this covers over a PCI core defect.  If the devices advertise
ASPM support, which both the qcom host controller and the endpoint
devices do, the PCI core should be able to enable it without being
prodded as this patch does.

We had a long conversation about this at [1], but never came to a good
resolution.  Since we don't know how to fix the PCI core issue, I
guess we have no choice but to do things like this patch, at least for
now.

If/when we ever *do* fix the PCI core issue, it would likely result in
enabling ASPM (if advertised by both ends of the link) for *all* qcom
controllers, not just the 1.9.0 ones.

And I think that even today, users can enable ASPM on non-1.9.0
controllers via sysfs.  So if you are concerned about ASPM not being
tested on those controllers, you may want to make them not advertise
ASPM support.

Even with this patch, I guess hot-added devices don't get ASPM
enabled?  That's basically what [1] is about.
