[PATCH v5 0/5] Fix long standing AER Error Handling Issues

[Naveen Naidu]

This patch series aims at fixing some of the AER error handling issues
we have.

Currently we have the following issues: 
  
  1. Confusing message in aer_print_error()
  2. aer_err_info not being initialized completely in DPC path before 
     we print the AER logs
  3. A bug [1] in clearing of AER registers in the native AER path

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20151229155822.GA17321@localhost/

The patch series fixes the above things.

PATCH 1: 
  - Fixes the first issue
  - This patch is independent of other patches and can be applied
    seperately

PATCH 2 - 3:
  - Fixes the second issue
  - Patch 3 is depended on Patch 2 in the series

PATCH 4
  - Fixes the bug in clearing of AER registers which leades to
    AER message spew [1]

PATCH 5:
  - Adds extra information (devctl register) in AER error logs.
  - Patch 5 depends on Patch 4 of the series

Thanks,
Naveen Naidu
