[Fix] Disable ASPM L1.2 because the device takes a long time to exit from L1.2. [Test] Use `iperf` to test network speed. When ASPM L1.2 gets disabled, TX and RX and reach ~700Mbps and ~900Mbps respectively. [Where problems could occur] Disabling ASPM L1.2 can slightly increase power consumption. The CPU package C-State seems to be unaffected so the increase is rather minor.
