OK, thanks.

There are two problems. First, your BIOS says that ASPM is not supported
by it, so we don't call _OSC, which should be fixed by the previous patch.
Second, pci_msi_enabled() returns 0 on your system, which is kind of strange,
because it evidently uses MSIs (as visible in the dmesg).

While I think we can safely request _OSC control even if ASPM is not supported
by the hardware (according to the BIOS), which is done after the first patch,
we need to figure out why 0 is returned by pci_msi_enabled() on your system
and try to work around that.

Thanks,
Rafael
