Hmm. I thought that the AER functions would eventually
be handled by the struct pci_error_handlers callbacks,
so that dev drivers wouldn't actually have code such as
> + pci_read_config_dword(pdev, pos + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, &status);
> + pci_read_config_dword(pdev, pos + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_SEVER, &mask);
in them. But perhaps I haven't studed what this drivr is trying to
do; nor have I really kept track of the aer code.
