This was just a comment about the doc not matching the function behavior. I think we have to support pci_enable_link_state() even if the driver hasn't previously called pci_disable_link_state(), so drivers have to be able to specify the pci_enable_link_state() @state from scratch. Does that answer the enforcement question? I don't think we can really enforce anything other than that @state specifies valid ASPM states. Bjorn
