IIUC, this dependency is discussed in sec 4.5.2.4. "Dependencies Between
_OSC Control Bits".

Because handling of Downstream Port Containment has a dependency on Advanced Error
Reporting, the operating system is required to request control over Advanced Error Reporting (bit 3
of the Control field) while requesting control over Downstream Port Containment Configuration
(bit 7 of the Control field). If the operating system attempts to claim control of Downstream Port
Containment Configuration without also claiming control over Advanced Error Reporting, firmware
is required to refuse control of the feature being illegally claimed and mask the corresponding bit.
Firmware is required to maintain ownership of Advanced Error Reporting if it retains ownership of
Downstream Port Containment Configuration.
If the operating system sets bit 7 of the Control field, it must set bit 7 of the Support field, indicating
support for the Error Disconnect Recover event.

Code wise it looks fine to me.
