[PATCH v2 6/7] wifi: ath12k: do not restore ASPM in case of single MSI vector

Current code enables ASPM by default, it allows MHI to enter M2 state.
In case of one MSI vector, system hang is observed if ath12k does MHI
register reading in this state.

The workaround here is to prevent MHI from entering M2 state, this can
be done by disabling ASPM if only one MSI vector is used. When using 32
vectors ASPM is enabled as before.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0-03427-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.15378.4
