ath10k mucks directly with ASPM, which it definitely shouldn't do because ASPM configuration is extremely sensitive, it involves both ends of the link, and the PCI core needs to know about it. So I'm a little suspicious of some issue there. Mani recently posted a patch series to clean that up a bit, but it's not fully cooked yet, and I don't know whether it will help this situation: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250716-ath-aspm-fix-v1-0-dd3e62c1b...@oss.qualcomm.com Bjorn
