Can we outline here specifically what is missing?

Should also be able to trigger this problem regardless of
CONFIG_PCIEASPM_* by using /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../link/l1_2_aspm.

I would word this more like "prevent advertising L1 Substates support"
since we're not actually *disabling* anything here.

If the RK3588 TRM is publicly available, a URL here would be helpful.

I suspect this problem is specifically related to L1.2 and CLKREQ#,
and L1.1 might work fine.  If so, can we update this so we still
advertise L1.1 support?
