[PATCH v8 5/6] PCI/ERR: only return true when dev io state is really changed

[Ethan Zhao]

When uncorrectable error happens, AER driver and DPC driver interrupt
handlers likely call

   pcie_do_recovery()
   ->pci_walk_bus()
     ->report_frozen_detected()

with pci_channel_io_frozen the same time.
   If pci_dev_set_io_state() return true even if the original state is
pci_channel_io_frozen, that will cause AER or DPC handler re-enter
the error detecting and recovery procedure one after another.
   The result is the recovery flow mixed between AER and DPC.
So change the pci_dev_set_io_state() function to only return true
when dev->error_state is really changed.
