Walking the bus with an RCEC as it is probed in the portdrv_pci.c can be 
done with both its own bus (bitmap) and with supported associated bus 
ranges.  In that walk I’m able to find all the associated endpoints 
via both bitmap on own bus and the bus ranges. No pci_get_slot() is 
needed as per your original suggestion.

The suggsted approach to the rcec_helper() seems to imply that we either 
walk it again or have cached all the associated RCiEP.  When we do the 
walk above, we are merely, finding the RCiEPs and linking them to the 
RCEC’s structure. There is no caching done of a list of RCiEPs per 
RCEC.

i.e., in aer.c : set_downstream_devices_error_reporting() wants to 
enable each associated RCiEP via pcie_walk_rcec().

Looking into changes to the pice_walk_rcec()
