[PATCH 1/2] PCI/AER: Remove aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter

From: Bjorn Helgaas
Date: Tue Sep 06 2016 - 18:20:10 EST


The aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter was intended for working around
broken chipsets don't supply the source ID for AER events. We recently
added PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_AERSID, which can be set by quirks for the same
purpose.

Remove the aerdriver.nosourceid kernel parameter. For anything other than
debugging, asking users to find and use kernel parameters is a poor user
experience. Instead, we should add PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_AERSID quirks for any
hardware that needs it.

2.3 AER error output
When a PCI-E AER error is captured, an error message will be outputted to
console. If it's a correctable error, it is outputted as a warning.
