Dear Richard,


Thank you for sending out v4.

I am still not clear, what “hang during suspend/resume” means. I guess 
suspending works fine? During resume (S3 or S0ix?), where does it hang? 
The system is functional, but there are only display problems?

This tag is a little confusing. Maybe clarify that it was for an issue 
in a previous patch iteration?

Can users still forcefully enable ASPM with the parameter `amdgpu.aspm`?

If I remember correctly, there were also newer cards, where ASPM worked 
with Intel Alder Lake, right? Can only the problematic generations for 
WX3200 and RX640 be excluded from ASPM?


Kind regards,
