If an OS has not been granted AER control via _OSC, then
the OS should not make changes to PCI_ERR_ROOT_COMMAND and
PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS related registers. Per section 4.5.1 of
the System Firmware Intermediary (SFI) _OSC and DPC Updates
ECN [1], this bit also covers these aspects of the PCI
Express Advanced Error Reporting. Further, the handling of
clear/enable of PCI_ERROR_ROOT_COMMAND when wrapped around
PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS should have no effect and be removed.
Based on the above and earlier discussion [2], make the
following changes:

Add a check for the native case (i.e., AER control via _OSC)
Re-order and remove some of the handling:
- clear PCI_ERR_ROOT_COMMAND ROOT_PORT_INTR_ON_MESG_MASK
- do reset
- clear PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS
- enable PCI_ERR_ROOT_COMMAND ROOT_PORT_INTR_ON_MESG_MASK

to this:

- clear PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS
- do reset

The current "clear, reset, enable" order suggests that the reset
might cause errors that we should ignore. But I am unable to find a
reference and the clearing of PCI_ERR_ROOT_STATUS does not require them.

There may be some reasons to disable interrupt first and then do resetting,
clear status and re-enable interrupt.
Perhaps to avoid error noise,  what would happen if the resetting
causes errors itself ?

I don’t have the historical context, but in looking at pci_bus_reset() it’s clear that it will probe slots for reset capability and then fall back to secondary bus reset. It’s possible that an attempt to reset a slot could result in an error on some hardware. This would potentially result in repeated error reporting. Not having the historical context, it’s best to leave in the clear/re-enabling of the interrupt when performing the reset.
