Indeed it seems this is only enabled in Lucid for powerpc-smp:

However, examining this config option a bit closer it seems this is noted as being experimental. We typically don't enable experimental options. I'll try to raise this for discussion to get additional input. Thanks.

          This enables PCI Express ASPM (Active State Power Management) and
