Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Disable ASPM on GL9750 during a suspension

GL9750 SD Host Controller has a 3100us PortTPowerOnTime; however, it
enters L1.2 after only ~4us inactivity per PCIe trace. During a
suspend/resume process, PCI access operations are frequently longer than
4us apart. Therefore, the device frequently enters and leaves L1.2 during
this process, causing longer than desirable suspend/resume time. The total
time cost due to this L1.2 exit latency could add up to ~200ms.

Considering that PCI access operations are fairly close to each other
(though sometimes > 4us), the actual time the device could stay in L1.2 is
negligible. Therefore, the little power-saving benefit from ASPM during
suspend/resume does not overweight the performance degradation caused by
long L1.2 exit latency.

Therefore, I am proposing to disable ASPM during a suspend/resume process.
