I agree we should do a slot reset if driver required. The question is if we apply
the patch, think of a situation that the io is normal, the slot is not hotpluggable but
driver reports a reset, then:
-->aer_root_reset()
----->pci_bus_error_reset()
---------> pci_bridge_secondary_bus_reset() // Is it necessary to reset if the link is not blocked?

Before commit (c4eed62a2143, PCI/ERR: Use slot reset if available), the reset_link() for aer is
-->aer_root_reset()
----->pci_bridge_secondary_bus_reset()

As mentioned by the commit c4eed62a2143 "The secondary bus reset may have link side effects that a hotplug capable
port may incorrectly react to. Use the slot specific reset for hotplug ports, fixing the undesirable link
down-up handling during error recovering." So I assume it use hotplug slot reset rather than secondary
bus reset to recover the link. If the link is normal, it's unnecessary to do so. so we should add a check
before reset the link in the patch:

+ if (status == PCI_ERS_RESULT_NEED_RESET &&
+ state == pci_channel_io_frozen) {

We should do slot reset if driver required, but it's different from the `slot reset` in pci_bus_error_reset().
Previously we don't do a slot reset and call ->slot_reset() directly, I don't know the certain reason.
