** Description changed:

  [impact]
  While booting into OOBE, the screen freeze [AMD W7500 only]
  
  [fix]
  AMDGPU would allocate pcie gen/lane dynamically after ASPM is enabled.
  Intel CPU may not support the dynamic lane/speed switching.
  
- Turn off the dynamic gen/lane switching when platform is Intel.
- amdgpu driver would pick the highest gen/lane instead.
+ - Detect Intel x86 systems that don't support dynamic switching
+ - Override the input caps to maximum supported for that system
+ - Force all PCIe levels to use the same settings, rather than try to 
configure each level differently.
  
  [test cases]
  1. boot with w7500
  2. the screen doesn't freeze and can't find the error message in dmesg.
  "amdgpu: [drm] *ERROR* [CRTC:72:crtc-0] flip_done timed out"
  
  [where the issue could happen]
- low, just fix the pci gen/lane.
+ low, this could lead issue when setting higher speeds than supported.
