PCI/AER: Skip error recovery on false alarms

Browse source 
Alex is seeing a probe failure of the amdgpu driver after the Root Port
above an AMD Navi10 GPU has been reset.  The reset was performed to recover
from a Firmware First reported Fatal Error.

However all status registers in the Root Port's AER Extended Capability are
blank, so apparently the platform firmware raised a false alarm.

The issue is only occurring since commit eddba19b8b ("PCI/AER: Support
Advisory Non-Fatal Errors").  It looks like enabling Advisory Non-Fatal
Errors causes code paths to be exercised in platform firmware which were
never validated before.

Skip error recovery on false alarms, i.e. if no unmasked errors were
actually signaled.

Note that this will also skip recovery if both the Status and Mask
registers are "all ones", as would be the case for inaccessible devices.
However that seems justified because it would imply either a hot-unplug
event or a Surprise Down Error further up in the hierarchy.  Interfering
with recovery from that seems uncalled for.
