Subject: [PATCH] PCI/AER: Continue AER recovery of device with NO_BUS_RESET set

In the current implementation, the AER FATAL and NONFTAL recovery will be
terminated for the device that exhibits NO_BUS_RESET quirk. The non-zero
return value from pci_bus_error_reset() is treated as an error condition
in aer_root_reset() which leads to return PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT.

  aer_recover_work_func()
    pcie_do_recovery()
      report_frozen_detected()
      if (aer_root_reset() == PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT)
         goto failed           # termimates here because of NO_BUS_RESET

      ...
      report_mmio_enabled()
      report_resume()
      pcie_clear_xxx_status()
      ...
      return 0
  failed:
      pci_uevent_ers(PCI_ERS_RESULT_DISCONNECT);

The return value -ENOTTY from pci_bus_error_reset() indicates SBR was
skipped but no real errors were encountered. This scenario could be
considered as a non-error case so that the PCI device driver gets the
opportunity to recover the device back to an operational state instead
of keeping it in the DISCONNECT state.
