Notice the VMD remapped PCIe Root Port and NVMe have PCI PM L1 substates capability, but they are disabled originally. Here is a failed example on ASUS B1400CEAE with enabled VMD: 10000:e0:06.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 11th Gen Core Processor PCIe Controller [8086:9a09] (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode]) ...

Prepare this series to fix that.
