Ok.

I found in using is_internal_error() (v5) a USP with fatal UCE will not have AER status
populated in aer_info structure, only the severity field is populated (see
aer_get_device_error_info()). The aer_info is not populated because concern reading
the USP's AER (config space) when the upstream link state is invalid. Calling
is_internal_error() in this case will return false because the uncorrectable internal error (UIE) bit is 0 and proceed to treat as a PCIe error.
How do you want to proceed to handle the UCE protocol error in this case?
