Done! Bug 3170405. There's lspci output from a working kernel too.

... but the PCI configuration space shows that even in 2.6.35.x (which did
not have ASPM kernel support as I recall, and which works for me perfectly
well with no freezing NICs), L0s and L1 are active. This is getting more
confusing by the moment.

Sorry for not doing it initially, but I have an allergy to SourceForge's
impossibly slow and clumsy user interface :) it seems to have improved
a bit recently though.
