Subject: [RESEND RFC 5/5] PCIe, AER: Update initial value of UC error mask

In PCI-e SPEC r3.0, BIT 0 of Uncorrectable Error Status Register
is redefined and it has an explicit requirement that when writing
this field, a value of 1b is the only choice. So change previous
initial maks from 0 to 1.

Signed-off-by: Chen, Gong <gong.chen@...ux.intel.com>

NOTE: After scratching all use cases, this is the most obvious use
case to violate the SPEC. Most of use cases just read first and
then overwrite for clear purpose. Even so, such fix is obvious to
not compatiable with previous SPEC definition. Do we need a dirty
hack?
