I think you have to verify the GUID first before you can even safely
extract a struct hisi_pcie_error_private from the payload:

  if (!guid_equal(...))
    return NOTIFY_DONE;

  priv = container_of(nb, struct hisi_pcie_error_private, nb);
  pdev = priv->pdev;
  dev = &pdev->dev;

  if (device_property_read_u8(dev, "socket", &socket))
    return NOTIFY_DONE;

  if (error_data->socket_id != socket)
    return NOTIFY_DONE;
