... but CXL downstream and upstream ports are not enumerated and not
visible in the PCIe hierarchy.

Protocol and link errors from these non-enumerated ports are
signaled as internal AER errors ... via a CXL RCEC.

This seems odd; I assume this refers to the RCEC's AER Error Source
Identification register, and the ERR_COR or ERR_FATAL/NONFATAL Source
Identification would ordinarily be the Requester ID of the RCiEP that
"sent" the Error Message. But you're saying it's actually the ID of
the *RCEC*, not the RCiEP?

We're going to call pci_aer_handle_error() as well, to handle the
non-internal errors, and I'm pretty sure that path expects the RCiEP
ID there.

Whatever the answer, I'm not sure this sentence is actually relevant
to this patch, since this patch doesn't read PCI_ERR_ROOT_ERR_SRC or
look at struct aer_err_source.id.

I assume the Memory Devices are CXL devices, so maybe "Error handling
for *other* CXL devices ... can be enabled later"?

IIUC, this happens via cxl_rch_handle_error_iter() calling
pci_error_handlers for CXL RCiEPs. Maybe the is_cxl_mem_dev() check
belongs inside those handlers, since that driver claimed the RCiEP and
should know its functionality? Maybe is_internal_error() and
cxl_error_is_native(), too?

... is that the AER service driver claims the CXL RCEC device, but
does not allow registration of a CXL sub-service driver ...
