[PATCH-RFC] drivers: pci: pcieport: Allow AER service only on root ports

From: Daniel Walker
Date: Thu Oct 07 2021 - 15:53:19 EST


From: Suneel Garapati <sgarapati@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Some AER interrupt capability registers may not be present on
non Root ports. Since there is no way to check presence of
ROOT_ERR_COMMAND and ROOT_ERR_STATUS registers. Allow AER
service only on root ports.
Otherwise AER interrupt message number is read incorrectly
causing MSIX vector registration to fail and fallback to legacy
unnecessarily.
