There's a lot going on in this patch.  Could it possibly be split up a
bit, e.g., first tease apart aer_err_info.status/.mask into
.cor_status/mask and .uncor_status/mask, then add .uncor_severity,
then add the device_status bit separately?  If it could be split up, I
think the ANFE case would be easier to see.

Thanks a lot for working on this area!
