Subject: [RFC][PATCH v3 1/3]: PCI: PCIe links may not get configured for ASPM under POWERSAVE mode


v3 -> v2: Moved ASPM enabling logic to pci_set_power_state()
v2 -> v1: Preserved the logic in pci_raw_set_power_state()
	: Added ASPM enabling logic after scanning Root Bridge
	: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130046996216391&w=2
v1	: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=130013164703283&w=2

The assumption made in commit 41cd766b065970ff6f6c89dd1cf55fa706c84a3d
(PCI: Don't enable aspm before drivers have had a chance to veto it) that
pci_enable_device() will result in re-configuring ASPM when aspm_policy is
POWERSAVE is no longer valid.  This is due to commit
97c145f7c87453cec90e91238fba5fe2c1561b32 (PCI: read current power state
at enable time) which resets dev->current_state to D0. Due to this the
call to pcie_aspm_pm_state_change() is never made. Note the equality check
(below) that returns early:
./drivers/pci/pci.c: pci_raw_set_pci_power_state()
546         /* Check if we're already there */
547         if (dev->current_state == state)
548                 return 0;

Therefore OSPM never configures the PCIe links for ASPM to turn them "on".

Fix it by configuring ASPM from the pci_enable_device() code path. This 
also allows a driver such as the e1000e networking driver a chance to 
disable ASPM (L0s, L1), if need be, prior to enabling the device. A 
driver may perform this action if the device is known to mis-behave 
wrt ASPM.
