I think you are right here. It seems that AER "service driver" is
completely missing PM hooks. Probably because it is more used in server
type of systems where power management is not priority.

Indeed - I think AER might trigger here because the link does "down" /
low power state if left enabled while the root port enters D3. Something
like below hack should disable it over low power transitions:
