Too many platforms are affected, the blacklist method won't scale.
Right now it seems like only Intel platforms are affected, so can I
propose a patch to disable ASPM when its upstream port is Intel?

When the hardware is doing DMA, it should initiate leaving ASPM L1,
correct? So in theory my workaround should be benign enough for most
platforms.
