    r8169: disable ASPM again · 1e4a7e78

    There's a significant number of reports that re-enabling ASPM causes
    different issues, ranging from decreased performance to system not
    booting at all. This affects only a minority of users, but the number
    of affected users is big enough that we better switch off ASPM again.
    
    This will hurt notebook users who are not affected by the issues, they
    may see decreased battery runtime w/o ASPM. With the PCI core folks is
    being discussed to add generic sysfs attributes to control ASPM.
    Once this is in place brave enough users can re-enable ASPM on their
    system.
