After this discussion I posted an RFC to enable those errors.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230209-cxl-pci-aer-v1-1-f9a817fa4016@xxxxxxxxx/

Unfortunately the prevailing opinion was that this was unsafe.  And no one
piped up with a reason to pursue the alternative of a pci core call to enable
them as needed.

So I abandoned the work.

I think the direction things where headed was to have a call like:

int pci_enable_pci_internal_errors(struct pci_dev *dev)
{
	int pos_cap_err;
	u32 reg;

	if (!pcie_aer_is_native(dev))
		return -EIO;

	pos_cap_err = dev->aer_cap;

	/* Unmask correctable and uncorrectable (non-fatal) internal errors */
	pci_read_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_COR_MASK, &reg);
	reg &= ~PCI_ERR_COR_INTERNAL;
	pci_write_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_COR_MASK, reg);
	
	pci_read_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_SEVER, &reg);
	reg &= ~PCI_ERR_UNC_INTN;
	pci_write_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_SEVER, reg);
	
	pci_read_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_MASK, &reg);
	reg &= ~PCI_ERR_UNC_INTN;
	pci_write_config_dword(dev, pos_cap_err + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_MASK, reg);

	return 0;
}

... and call this from the cxl code where it is needed.

Is this an acceptable direction?  Terry is welcome to steal the above from my
patch and throw it into the PCI core.

Looking at the current state of things I think cxl_pci_ras_unmask() may
actually be broken now without calling something like the above.  For that I
dropped the ball.
