Subject: [PATCH]PCIe AER: fix aer inject result in kernel oops

If BIOS does not export _OSC to allow OS take over the PCIe AER, pcie aer
driver will not initialize aer service. But aer_inject driver does not check
this scenario, it results in kernel oops when inject aer error to OS.
Some of kernel oops information as following:
