PCI/PCIe/AER: Disable native AER service if BIOS has precedence
There is a design issue related to PCIe AER and _OSC that the BIOS may be asked to grant control of the AER service even if some Hardware Error Source Table (HEST) entries contain information meaning that the BIOS really should control it. Namely, pcie_port_acpi_setup() calls pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() that determines whether or not the AER service should be controlled by the BIOS on the basis of the HEST information for the given PCIe port. The BIOS is asked to grant control of the AER service for a PCIe Root Complex if pcie_aer_get_firmware_first() returns 'false' for at least one root port in that complex, even if all of the other root ports' HEST entries have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set (and none of them has the GLOBAL flag set). However, if the AER service is controlled by the kernel, that may interfere with the BIOS' handling of the error sources having the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag. Moreover, there may be PCIe endpoints that have the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set in HEST and are attached to the root ports in question, in which case it also may be unsafe to ask the BIOS for control of the AER service. For this reason, introduce a function checking if there's at least one PCIe-related HEST entry with the FIRMWARE_FIRST flag set and disable the native AER service altogether if this function returns 'true'.
