BIOSes on more machines are buggy and lot of times - do not configure ASPM for PCIE device property. CONFIG_PCIEASPM_DEBUG - option allows users or testers to hotfix potential bugs in BIOS... That - config option only add new sysfs files so it should not break anything - else in kernel. + [Impact] + CONFIG_PCIEASPM_DEBUG (which is currently disabled for Ubuntu kernels) can be used to enable/disable ASPM settings per PCIE device.
