I expect it would better to fold this into the patch that makes use of
the is_internal_error() outside of the CONFIG_PCIEAER_CXL case.
With this patch in isolation it is not clear that a kernel that sets
CONFIG_PCIEAER_CXL=n should distinguish PCIe internal errors from CXL
errors.
The real problem seems to be that CONFIG_PCIEAER_CXL depends on CXL_PCI.
I.e. is_internal_error() only matters for the CXL case, and the CXL
handling is moving more into the core and dropping its CXL_PCI
dependency.
