AER status bits are sticky, and they survive system resets. Downstream
devices are usually taken care of after re-enumerating the downstream
busses, as the AER bits are cleared during probe().

However, nothing clears the bits of the port which contained the
error. These sticky bits may leave some BIOSes to think that something
bad happened, and print ominous messages on next boot. To prevent this,
tidy up the AER status bits before releasing containment.
