Dear Maintainers,

I am using this crude workaround daily and it seems to work (as per
upstream advice)

cat /etc/systemd/system/realtek-bug.service 
[Unit]
Description=Realtek Bugfix
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/bash -c '/usr/bin/echo 0 >
/sys/class/net/enp2s0/device/link/l1_1_aspm'
ExecStart=/usr/bin/sleep 1
ExecStart=/usr/bin/bash -c '/usr/bin/echo 0 >
/sys/class/net/enp2s0/device/link/l1_aspm'

[Install]
WantedBy=network.target

obviously each user has to find out the /sys path to his/her realtek
network device.
