Subject: [PATCH v11 6/8] PCI/DPC: Update comments related to DPC recovery on NON_FATAL errors

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@...ux.intel.com>

Currently, in native mode, DPC driver is configured to trigger DPC only
for FATAL errors and hence it only supports port recovery for FATAL
errors. But with Error Disconnect Recover (EDR) support, DPC
configuration is done by firmware, and hence we should expect DPC
triggered for both FATAL/NON_FATAL errors. So update comments and add
details about how NON_FATAL dpc recovery is handled.
