Please run `dmesg` and see that your statement is false. That’s what log 
levels are for, and in your case, it would be at least error level. 
Also, I claim, something indeed went wrong, because a quirk had to be 
applied. So please add a notice log level, that ASPM gets disabled:

Disable ASPM on Alder Lake with Volcanic Islands card due to resume 
problems. System energy consumption might be higher than expected.


Kind regards,

Paul
