Current workaround:
ASPM L0s L1 Enabled on each PCIe device can be created using manually using the correct setpci commands. This reliably enables ASPM L0s and L1 saving 25% in power consumption when measured at wall over at least 8 hours:
# setpci -s 00:01.00 0xB0.B=0x3 # Intel Xeon E3-1200 PCIe controller [8086:0c01]
# setpci -s 00:1c.05 0x50.B=0x43 # Intel 8 series PCIe root port #6 [8086:8c1a]
# setpci -s 00:1c.00 0x50.B=0x43 # Intel 8 series PCIe root port #1 [8086:8c10]
# setpci -s 03:00.00 0x80.B=0x43 # Realtek Gigabit Ethernet [10ec:8168]
