I'm seeing this problem on Linux's ASPM code using powersave option where
each side of the link is having ASPM L0s enabled without coordination with
the other side. I'm wondering if you are hitting this too.

Legacy software (either operating system or firmware) that encounters 
the previously reserved value 00b (No ASPM Support), will most likely
refrain from enabling L1, which is intended behavior. 10 Legacy software
will also most likely refrain from enabling L0s for that component’s 
Transmitter (also intended behavior), but it is unclear if such software
will also refrain from enabling L0s for the component on the other side 
of the Link. 

If software enables L0s on one side when the component on 
the other side does not indicate that it supports L0s, the result is 
undefined.
