[PATCH 5/6] hw/pci-bridge/cxl_upstream: Fix missing ERRP_GUARD() in cxl_

From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com>

As the comment in qapi/error, dereferencing @errp requires
ERRP_GUARD():

* = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() =
*
* Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted:
* - It must not be dereferenced, because it may be null.
* - It should not be passed to error_prepend() or
*   error_append_hint(), because that doesn't work with &error_fatal.
* ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions.
*
* To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function.
* @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being
* NULL or &error_fatal.
*
* Using it when it's not needed is safe, but please avoid cluttering
* the source with useless code.

Currently, since cxl_usp_realize() - as a PCIDeviceClass.realize()
method - doesn't get the NULL errp parameter, it doesn't trigger the
dereference issue.

To follow the requirement of errp, add missing ERRP_GUARD() in
cxl_usp_realize()().
