I think you would put into include/linux/pci.h only if there is an external
use of constant outside of drivers/pci directory. Otherwise, you should keep
the setting inside one of the header files in drivers/pci directory.

I don't see any other subsystem caring about DPC_FATAL definition.

ok so you are suggesting to move only DPC_FATAL ? so then AER can stay where it is.

Now that both AER and DPC handling is getting unified, I think it makes sense to
keep all error codes (AER+DPC) together in drivers/pci/pci.h rather than having
them split in aer.h and dpc.h.

Otherwise, how would we avoid having a new error type defined with the
existing values.

I agree, its is just that drivers/acpi/apet/ghes.c has to do
#include ../../pci/pci.h

but thats okay I think. let me move error codes to drivers/pci/pci.h.
