What is the case where an RCEC is passed to pcie_do_recovery()? I
guess it's the case where an RCEC is reporting an error that it logged
itself, i.e., no RCiEP is involved at all? In that case I guess we
should try an FLR on the RCEC and clear its status?

(I don't think the current series attempts the FLR.)
