What happens when we power down a device for suspend or because it's idle?
Can we get spurious AER errors when we power the device back up?  This
patch only covers the enumeration path, so we'd need to do more if it can
happen during suspend/resume.

Why does this need to be exported?  I see that
pci_cleanup_aer_uncorrect_error_status() above is exported, and it is used
by many drivers, so I see why that needs to be exported.  But there are no
users of pci_cleanup_aer_error_status_regs() outside the PCI core yet.  And
if we wanted to add users outside the core, I would question whether that's
the right thing to do.  AER management seems like something that probably
should be done by the PCI core, not by drivers.

The other capability init functions check internally for pci_is_pcie(), so
please do the same here.
