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.
...
* 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.

But in nubus_virtio_mmio_realize(), @errp is dereferenced without
ERRP_GUARD().

Although nubus_virtio_mmio_realize() - as a DeviceClass.realize()
method - doesn't get the NULL @errp parameter, it hasn't triggered the
bug that dereferencing the NULL @errp. It's still necessary to follow
the requirement of @errp, so add missing ERRP_GUARD() in
nubus_virtio_mmio_realize().
