ASPM: Fix pcie devices with non-pcie children
Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON. Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because no disks are detected. Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command line works around it. The cause: commit 4949be16822e ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking when ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in order to avoid cases where we changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1 devices. This skipped the secondary function of pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices that had non-PCIe children, causing trouble later on. Move the aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour that scenario.
