This appears to be a PCI specific flag, so the name should include
_PCI_.  We also support non-PCIe devices and it seems like it would be
possible to not have AER support available, so shouldn't this be
conditional?

I'm not sure why we wouldn't describe this as just another interrupt
from the device and configure it via SET_IRQ.  This ioctl has very
limited use and doesn't follow any of the conventions of all the other
vfio ioctls.

What if err_trigger hasn't been set?

This is unsafe.  How do we know dev is a vfio device?  How do we keep
that drvdata valid while you're using it?  I think you want to export
the existing vfio_group_get_device() and vfio_device_put().  Thanks,
