From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> We want to report that the kernel supports ASPM to the BIOS even if the BIOS signals us that it doesn't. So, we need the flags to include (OSC_ACTIVE_STATE_PWR_SUPPORT | OSC_CLOCK_PWR_CAPABILITY_SUPPORT) before calling acpi_pci_osc_support(root, flags) in acpi_pci_root_add() (unless there's a command line telling us that ASPM is not to be supported). However, knowing that the BIOS doesn't support ASPM, we shouldn't request the control of it, so we should remove (OSC_ACTIVE_STATE_PWR_SUPPORT | OSC_CLOCK_PWR_CAPABILITY_SUPPORT) from the flags before calling acpi_pci_osc_control_set() in those cases. Failing to do so causes the evaluation of _OSC for the PCI root bridge to return error codes on some systems where it should work correctly.
