If someone is going to add same ASPM code in host_post_init() callback, they
will most likely aware of the hotplug issue. I see this as an interim solution
overall and we should fix the PCI core to handle this. But I do not see any
straightforward way to enable ASPM by default in PCI core as the misbehaving
devices can pull the system down (atleast in some x86 cases).
