I did tests and here are the results:

  - quirk pci_disable_link_state(dev, PCIE_LINK_STATE_ALL)
    Issue not present

  - quirk pci_disable_link_state(dev, PCIE_LINK_STATE_L1_1 | PCIE_LINK_STATE_L1_2)
    Issue present, timings similar to timings already reported
    (hundreds of ms).

  - quirk pci_disable_link_state(dev, PCIE_LINK_STATE_L0S);
    Issue present, timings still incorrect but lower
      64 bytes from 192.168.32.100: seq=10 ttl=64 time=16.738 ms
      64 bytes from 192.168.32.100: seq=11 ttl=64 time=39.500 ms
      64 bytes from 192.168.32.100: seq=12 ttl=64 time=62.178 ms
      64 bytes from 192.168.32.100: seq=13 ttl=64 time=84.709 ms
      64 bytes from 192.168.32.100: seq=14 ttl=64 time=107.484 ms

  - quirk pci_disable_link_state(dev, PCIE_LINK_STATE_CLKPM)
    Issue present, timings similar to timings already reported
    (hundreds of ms).

  - No quirk, echo performance > /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy
    Issue fixed

  - No quirk, CONFIG_PCIEASPM = n
    Issue fixed (obviously)

Hope those results will help on the topic.

Best regards,
Hervé
