On the 88W8897 PCIe+USB card the firmware randomly crashes after setting the TX ring write pointer. The issue is present in the latest firmware version 15.68.19.p21 of the PCIe+USB card. Those firmware crashes can be worked around by reading any PCI register of the card after setting that register, so read the PCI_VENDOR_ID register here. The reason this works is probably because we keep the bus from entering an ASPM state for a bit longer, because that's what causes the cards firmware to crash. This fixes a bug where during RX/TX traffic and with ASPM L1 substates enabled (the specific substates where the issue happens appear to be platform dependent), the firmware crashes and eventually a command timeout appears in the logs.
