mb/google/guybrush: Disable WLAN ASPM
ASPM on the WLAN PCIe bus introduces large latency spikes, which can be measured with cyclictest: $ cyclictest --policy=rr --priority=12 --interval=10000 --threads=1 --loops=6000 Disabling ASPM for WLAN reduces the latency spikes from 2,500-3,000 usec down to 35-65 usec. These latency spikes can impact the user when real-time processes like Audio (cras) are starved of CPU time, leading to buffer underruns resulting in crackling/distorted audio. ASPM is already disabled for Nipperkin devices (CB:63537), so this CL disables it for both in the shared declaration of guybrush_czn_dxio_descriptors. Power impact for Dewatt: * ASPM enabled power_VideoCall.FDO_25min_webrtc w_energy_rate 7.425043688811071 power_Idle.default20min wh_energy_used 1.4164200000000022 * ASPM disabled power_VideoCall.FDO_25min_webrtc w_energy_rate 8.779998551703423 power_Idle.default20min wh_energy_used 1.4860800000000012 When using Google Meet over WiFi, power increases by ~1.5W.
