Enable or disable ASPM should be done in PCI core instead of in the
device driver.
Commit ba04c7c93bbc ("r8169: disable ASPM") uses
pci_disable_link_state() to disable ASPM, but it's not the best way to
do it. If the device really wants to disable ASPM, we can use a quirk in
PCI core to prevent the PCI core from setting ASPM before probe.
Let's remove pci_disable_link_state() for now. Use PCI core quirks if
any regression happens.
