Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 006/191] PCI/ACPI: Correct error message for ASPM disabling

From: Sinan Kaya <okaya@...nel.org>

[ Upstream commit 1ad61b612b95980a4d970c52022aa01dfc0f6068 ]

If _OSC execution fails today for platforms without an _OSC entry, code is
printing a misleading message saying disabling ASPM as follows:

  acpi PNP0A03:00: _OSC failed (AE_NOT_FOUND); disabling ASPM

We need to ensure that platform supports ASPM to begin with.
