I think this case is either impossible (if we only call this function
for devices known to support AER), or it fixes an actual bug (the
caller would call aer_print_error() when it shouldn't, and potentially
print garbage).  Right?

If the former, I vote for removing the test.  If the latter, the
changelog should mention that it fixes a bug.
