[PATCH 3/4] PCI/ACPI: Request DPC control only together with AER control

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan

Date: Wed Oct 07 2026 - 13:00:57 EST


PCI Firmware r3.3, sec 4.5.2.4, requires the OS to request AER control
when it requests DPC control. calculate_control() requests DPC control
whenever CONFIG_PCIE_DPC is enabled, even if it does not request AER
control, e.g., with "pci=noaer" or when MSI is disabled.

Request DPC control only if AER control is also requested.
