It's called in pcie_do_recovery

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/pci/pcie/err.c#L200

Which is called from both handle_error_source and aer_recover_work_func.

indirectly called from ghes_handle_aer / ghes_do_proc

This particular flow will only happen (I think) on hardware reduced ACPI systems.
