[PATCH v2] PCI/AER: Handle Multi UnCorrectable/Correctable errors properly

Currently the aer_irq() handler returns IRQ_NONE for cases without bits
PCI_ERR_ROOT_UNCOR_RCV or PCI_ERR_ROOT_COR_RCV are set. But this
assumption is incorrect.

Consider a scenario where aer_irq() is triggered for a correctable
error, and while we process the error and before we clear the error
status in "Root Error Status" register, if the same kind of error
is triggered again, since aer_irq() only clears events it saw, the
multi-bit error is left in tact. This will cause the interrupt to fire
again, resulting in entering aer_irq() with just the multi-bit error
logged in the "Root Error Status" register.

Repeated AER recovery test has revealed this condition does happen
and this prevents any new interrupt from being triggered. Allow to
process interrupt even if only multi-correctable (BIT 1) or
multi-uncorrectable bit (BIT 3) is set.

This error can be reproduced by making following changes to the
aer_irq() function and by executing the given test commands.

 static irqreturn_t aer_irq(int irq, void *context)
         struct aer_err_source e_src = {};

         pci_read_config_dword(rp, aer + PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS,
				&e_src.status);
 +       pci_dbg(pdev->port, "Root Error Status: %04x\n",
 +		e_src.status);
         if (!(e_src.status & AER_ERR_STATUS_MASK))
                 return IRQ_NONE;

 +       mdelay(5000);

 # Prep injection data for a correctable error.
 $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj
 $ echo 0x00000040 > error_type
 $ echo 0x4 > flags
 $ echo 0x891000 > param4

 # Root Error Status is initially clear
 $ setpci -s <Dev ID> ECAP0001+0x30.w
 0000

 # Inject one error
 $ echo 1 > error_inject

 # Interrupt received
 pcieport <Dev ID>: AER: Root Error Status 0001

 # Inject another error (within 5 seconds)
 $ echo 1 > error_inject

 # No interrupt received, but "multiple ERR_COR" is now set
 $ setpci -s <Dev ID> ECAP0001+0x30.w
 0003

 # Wait for a while, then clear ERR_COR. A new interrupt immediately
   fires.
 $ setpci -s <Dev ID> ECAP0001+0x30.w=0x1
 pcieport <Dev ID>: AER: Root Error Status 0002

Currently, the above issue has been only reproduced in the ICL server
platform.
