This is a bit clever, might want a comment that it pairs with the
pci_dev_get() in cxl_forward_error().

There is no way for pdev to be NULL in this path.
cxl_cper_handle_prot_err() is different because the CPER record is not
100% reliable and pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() can fail. No worries
about that here.

I expect this also wants to check port->dev.driver?

It feels odd to keep passing @wd when the pdev and port have already been
extracted. ...but that is minor.

cxl_cper_register_prot_err_work() should return void like
cxl_register_proto_err_work(). If someone registers a NULL work that is
the same as not registering anything, caller gets to keep the pieces.

No real bugs that need addressing, so:
