AER error recovery is part of the AER error handling subsystem in the
Linux kernel. On large modular systems with a complex PCIe tree, AER
recovery could cause unexpected behavior and side effects. Sometimes it
would be nice to have the option to keep the system in an unmodified
state and be able to handle PCIe errors from userspace.

Add pci=noaer_recovery kernel boot option to disable AER error recovery
when an uncorrectable error is reported. When this option is set, the
error is still logged but no recovery actions are taken. AER error
status bits are preserved so userspace can inspect the error state.
