Subject: [PATCH] aerdrv: Enable AER completion notice

When an AER event occurs not all of the print notifications are at the
same log level.  This can cause an incomplete AER log from the users
point of view when monitoring the console output.

The completion message in do_recovery() is currently set to KERN_DEBUG
(log level 7) while the starting message in aer_port_info() uses
KERN_INFO(log level 6). The completion message should be set to
KERN_INFO so it is consistent with the starting message in the log.

The message has also been re-worded to make it more clear.  This patch 
will enable the AER log on the console output to be book-ended by a
clear and consistent starting and completion message.
