Currently, the above issue has been only reproduced in the ICL server
platform.

[Eric: proposed reproducing steps]
Hmm, this differs from the procedure I described on v1, and I don't
think will work as described here.

I have attempted to modify the steps to reproduce it without returning
IRQ_NONE for all cases (which will break the functionality). But I
think I did not correct the last few steps.

How about replacing the last 3 steps with following?

# Inject another error (within 5 seconds)
$ echo 1 > error_inject

# You will get a new IRQ with only multiple ERR_COR bit set
pcieport <Dev ID>: AER: Root Error Status 0002
