ASPM issues come with quite different symptoms. Sometimes there's just a number of rx_missed errors and performance is significantly reduced, w/o tx timeout. Therefore at least in mainline I'd like to keep ASPM disabled per default. But every user or distro can use sysfs to enable selected ASPM states by using the attributes under /sys/class/net/<if>/device/link (provided that BIOS allows OS to control ASPM).
