I think something like:

  for (i = 0; i < e_info->error_dev_num && e_info->dev[i]; i++)

is functionally equivalent.

I suspected so.

Agreed.

I don't have a problem with that decision. But you might add a comment
saying so, e.g.,

#define AER_MAX_MULTI_ERR_DEVICES	5    /* Not likely to have more */
