Can you clarify what your BIOS does? I assume it's an x86 ACPI BIOS.
Does it enable ASPM before handing off to the OS? Does it set the
ACPI_FADT_NO_ASPM bit? (ACPI spec 5.0, sec 5.2.9.3)
You're changing the _OSC failure path. Why does _OSC fail? I know
there is some sort of unresolved problem there
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94661); maybe you're
tripping over that?
It seems like you're proposing to reverse what Matthew just did with
387d37577fdd ("PCI: Don't clear ASPM bits when the FADT declares it's
unsupported").
