Interesting! I applied your diff and I never see this issue so far (across 10+
reboots):

[    3.758239] ath12k_pci_power_up 1475: link_ctl 0x42
[    3.758315] ath12k_pci_power_up 1480: link_ctl 0x40
[    4.383900] ath12k_pci_start 1180: link_ctl 0x40
[    4.384026] ath12k_pci_start 1185: link_ctl 0x42

Are you sure that you applied all the 6 patches in the series and not just the
ath patches? Because, the first 3 PCI core patches are required to make the API
work as intended.

I don't see any AER errors either.
