[PATCH] PCI/AER: Move the error info struct into the root port container

[Jon Derrick <jonathan.derrick@intel.com>]

AER injecting tests with many devices and nosourceid are resulting in
soft lockups, mostly due to the config reads (which have been helped
by recent aer capability position caching patches), but also due to a
superfluous kmalloc/kfree pair executed for each p_device.

When a device emits an error notification, it's not unreasonable to
assume that it may emit another error notification soon. Instead of
kmallocing and kfreeing the aer_err_info struct for each p_device during
an aer_isr pass, move the struct into the aer root port container and
kill the allocation.

The current code suggests the aer_err_info struct could be huge, but is
actually only about 70 bytes. Whereas the aer_rpc root port container is
over 900 bytes. Because of the already large size of the root port
container, moving the struct into it should not adversely impact access
to the root port container.
