From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> Previously we claimed "pcie_aspm=off" meant that ASPM would be disabled, which is wrong. Correct this to say that with "pcie_aspm=off", Linux doesn't touch any ASPM configuration at all. ASPM may have been enabled by firmware, and that will be left unchanged. See "aspm_support_enabled".
