Yeah, without assistance from the vendor it becomes much harder to do. 
It's worth noting that there are (as far as I know) no situations in 
which we'll enable ASPM when Windows won't if the "Maximum power 
savings" option is enabled, so hardware that's broken on Linux should 
also be broken on Windows. In theory ASPM should be blacklisted in the 
Windows driver .inf, but it turns out that some vendors do it directly 
in the drivers instead.
