I assume this works by writing the PCIe Link Capabilities register,
which is read-only via the config space path used by the generic ASPM
code, so that code thinks the device doesn't support L0s at all.

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/rockchip-pcie-host.txt includes
an "aspm-no-l0s" property.  It'd be nice if this could use the same
property.
