This should use PCI_EXP_LNKCTL instead of "0x10".

This quirk replaces the config accessors with ones that silently ignore
writes to ASPM control bits.  That really warrants at least a dev_info()
note here, and we should be using pci_bus_set_ops().

Even that is a little bit dubious because I don't think this is really
safe -- what happens if this quirk replaces the ops, then somebody
else replaces the ops again?  aer_inject.c at least keeps track of
the old ops and seems to fall back to them, but it seems fragile to
depend on every caller of pci_bus_set_ops() to do the right thing
there.

But this is beyond the scope of your patch, so if you just
add a dev_info() note and use pci_bus_set_ops(), that should be
enough for now.
