I'm confused.  It seems like we certainly need to clear fatal errors
after they occur *somewhere*, and if we don't, surely this would be a
very obvious issue.  But you didn't mention this being a bug fix, so I
assume it's more of a cleanup.

If it *is* a bug fix, please say that and give a hint about what the
bug looks like, e.g., what sort of messages a user might see.

If it's not a bug fix, I don't understand how AER fatal errors get
cleared today.  The PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS bits are sticky, so they're
not cleared by a reset.  In the current tree, these are the only
places I see that clear AER fatal errors:

  pci_init_capabilities
    pci_aer_init         # once at device enumeration
      pci_aer_clear_status
        pci_aer_raw_clear_status
          pci_write_config_dword(dev, aer + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, status)

  aer_probe
    aer_enable_rootport  # once at Root Port enumeration
      pci_write_config_dword(pdev, aer + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, reg32)

  dpc_process_error      # after DPC triggered
    pci_aer_clear_fatal_status
      pci_write_config_dword(dev, aer + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, status)

  edr_handle_event       # after EDR event
    pci_aer_raw_clear_status
      pci_write_config_dword(dev, aer + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, status)

  pci_restore_state      # after reset or PM sleep/resume
    pci_aer_clear_status
      pci_aer_raw_clear_status
        pci_write_config_dword(dev, aer + PCI_ERR_UNCOR_STATUS, status)

The only one that could clear errors after an AER error (not DPC or
EDR), would be the pci_restore_state() in the reset path.  If the
current code relies on that, I'd say that's a pretty non-obvious
dependency.
