Hi,

Some platforms have a mix of ports whose capabilities can be negotiated
by _OSC, and some ports which are not described by ACPI and instead
managed by Native drivers. The existing Firmware-First HEST model can
incorrectly tag these Native, Non-ACPI ports as Firmware-First capable
ports by advertising the HEST Global flag and specifying the type and
class (aer_hest_parse).

This ultimately can lead to bad situations if the BIOS or port firmware
leaves DPC preconfigured and the Linux DPC driver is unable to bind to
the port to handle DPC events.

This patch adds the check for Native DPC in the port's host bridge in
order to allow DPC services to bind to the port.

Why not add it there for DPC as well ?
