IMO users need to take full responsibility for own doings. Also, it's already doable by using setpci... If we don't want to add LTR sysfs, what other options do we have to enable VMD ASPM and LTR by default since BIOS doesn't do it for us? 1) Enable it in the PCI or VMD driver, however this approach violates POLICY_DEFAULT. 2) Use `setpci` directly in udev rules to enable VMD ASPM and LTR. I think 2) is bad, and since 1) isn't so good either, the approach in this patch may be the best compromise.
