Currently, we do not print the "id" field in the AER error logs. Yet the
aer_agent_string[] has the word "id" in it. The AER error log looks
like:

  pcieport 0000:00:03.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, (Receiver ID)

Without the "id" field in the error log, The aer_agent_string[]
(eg: "Receiver ID") does not make sense. A user reading the
aer_agent_string[] in the log, might inadvertently look for an "id"
field and not finding it might lead to confusion.

Remove the "ID" from the aer_agent_string[].

The following are sample dummy errors inject via aer-inject.
I like this, and the problem it fixes was my fault because
these "ID" strings should have been removed by 010caed4ccb6.

If it's straightforward enough, it would be nice to have the
aer-inject command line here in the commit log to make it easier
for people to play with this.

Before
=======

In 010caed4ccb6 ("PCI/AER: Decode Error Source Requester ID"),
the "id" field was removed from the AER error logs, so currently AER
logs look like:

  pcieport 0000:00:03.0: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:03:0
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, (Receiver ID) <--- no id field
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0:   device [1b36:000c] error status/mask=00000040/0000e000
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0:    [ 6] BadTLP

After
======

  pcieport 0000:00:03.0: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:03.0
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, (Receiver)
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0:   device [1b36:000c] error status/mask=00000040/0000e000
  pcieport 0000:00:03.0:    [ 6] BadTLP
