mt7921 is mainly used in NB, CE and IoT application where battery life is
much concerned so the patch enabled PCIe ASPM by default to shut off the
clocks related PCIe as much as possible when MT7921 is either in suspend
state or in runtime pm to lower power consumption.

We still leave disable aspm as an option with module_param for users to
disable ASPM if necessary.

instead of adding a module parameter (deprecated), why not just enable it by
default for mt7921 and add a debugfs knob to flip it?

Lorenzo

Why is a module parameter deprecated? I have not heard about that.

debugfs is not ideal for this kind of hardware configuration as debugfs
can be disabled. My preference is to use a module parameter.
