When we don't own AER, we shouldn't touch the AER error bits. Clearing
error bits willy-nilly might cause firmware to miss some errors. In
theory, these bits get cleared by FFS, or via ACPI _HPX method. These
mechanisms are not subject to the problem.
This race is mostly of theoretical significance, since I can't
reasonably demonstrate this race in the lab.
On a side-note, pcie_aer_is_kernel_first() is created to alleviate the
need for two checks: aer_cap and get_firmware_first().
