portdrv only binds to bridges, and it looks like
broadcast_error_message() only calls the pci_error_handlers callbacks
for subordinate devices, never for the bridge itself:

broadcast_error_message
if (dev->hdr_type == PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE)
pci_walk_bus(dev->subordinate, ...)

If that's the case, why do we need pcie_portdrv_err_handler at all?
We should remove it completely if we don't need it.

ISTR some arcane call path for pcie_portdrv_err_resume(), but I don't
remember the details.
