[PATCH] vfio/pci: Support error recovery

From: Cao jin
Date: Sun Nov 27 2016 - 06:31:07 EST


It is user space driver's or device-specific driver's(in guest) responsbility
to do a serious recovery when error happened. Link-reset is one part of
recovery, when pci device is assigned to VM via vfio, link-reset will do
twice in host & guest separately, which will cause many trouble for a
successful recovery, so, disable the vfio-pci's link-reset in aer driver
in host, this is a keypoint for guest to do error recovery successfully.

This is actually a RFC version(has debug lines left), and has minor changes in
aer driver, so I think maybe it is better not to CC pci guys in this round.
Later will do.
