I think this patch changes the behavior in the case of a non-fatal error
where one of the .error_detected() methods returned
PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET.  In that case, pcie_portdrv_slot_reset()
previously did not restore config space, but after your patch, it *will*
restore it.  We need an explanation of why this is safe.

I think you should split this into two patches: the first would remove the
"if (dev->error_state == pci_channel_io_frozen)" test from portdrv_pci.c
and explain the reason, and the second would make the aerdrv_core.c change.

I'm also concerned that in that same case (a non-fatal error where one of
the .error_detected() methods returned PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET), I don't
think we actually *do* any kind of device reset.  This isn't related to
your patch, of course, so if you resolve the config space restore question,
we can deal with the reset question later.
