Subject: [PATCH 4.14 10/54] staging: r8822be: Fix RTL8822be cant find any wireless AP

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ping-Ke Shih <pkshih@...ltek.com>

commit d59d2f9995d28974877750f429e821324bd603c7 upstream.

RTL8822be can't bring up properly on ASUS X530UN, and dmesg says:
[ 8.591333] r8822be: module is from the staging directory, the quality
is unknown, you have been warned.
[ 8.593122] r8822be 0000:02:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0003)
[ 8.669163] r8822be: Using firmware rtlwifi/rtl8822befw.bin
[ 9.289939] r8822be: rtlwifi: wireless switch is on
[ 10.056426] r8822be 0000:02:00.0 wlp2s0: renamed from wlan0
...
[ 11.952534] r8822be: halmac_init_hal failed
[ 11.955933] r8822be: halmac_init_hal failed
[ 11.956227] r8822be: halmac_init_hal failed
[ 22.007942] r8822be: halmac_init_hal failed

Jian-Hong reported it works if turn off ASPM with module parameter aspm=0.
In order to fix this problem kindly, this commit don't turn off aspm but
enlarge ASPM L1 latency to 7.
