Hmm. The only case where changing aspm_support_enabled to false should 
matter is in pcie_aspm_init_link_state(), where it looks like we'll 
potentially rewrite some registers even if aspm_disabled is true. I 
think in theory we shouldn't actually modify anything as a result, and 
the lspcis from the bug don't show any ASPM values having changed, but I 
don't trust Realtek hardware in the general case so maybe it gets upset 
here? If the proposed patch is to just set aspm_support_enabled to false 
when we see the FADT bit set then I think this is fine.
