[PATCH v2 2/2] nvme-pci: Allow PCI bus-level PM to be used if ASPM is disabled

From: Rafael J. Wysocki

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

One of the modifications made by commit d916b1be94b6 ("nvme-pci: use
host managed power state for suspend") was adding a pci_save_state()
call to nvme_suspend() in order to prevent the PCI bus-level PM from
being applied to the suspended NVMe devices, but if ASPM is not
enabled for the target NVMe device, that causes its PCIe link to stay
up and the platform may not be able to get into its optimum low-power
state because of that.

For example, if ASPM is disabled for the NVMe drive (PC401 NVMe SK
hynix 256GB) in my Dell XPS13 9380, leaving it in D0 during
suspend-to-idle prevents the SoC from reaching package idle states
deeper than PC3, which is way insufficient for system suspend.

To address this shortcoming, make nvme_suspend() check if ASPM is
enabled for the target device and fall back to full device shutdown
and PCI bus-level PM if that is not the case.

-> v2:
* Move the PCI/PCIe ASPM changes to a separate patch.
* Do not add a redundant ndev->last_ps == U32_MAX check in nvme_suspend().
