I find that the .link_reset callback of struct pci_error_handlers isn't
called by anyone(if I didn't miss anything), and just a few drivers
implement this callback, and their implementation seems meaningless.

And the reset_link() provided by aer driver seems is a different thing
with .link_reset callback. So I am guessing this patch probably is not
quite suitable, and the doc maybe need update totally.
