As the comment in qapi/error, passing @errp to error_prepend() requires
ERRP_GUARD():

ERRP_GUARD() could avoid the case when @errp is the pointer of
error_fatal, the user can't see this additional information, because
exit() happens in error_setg earlier than information is added [1].

The nbd_co_do_receive_one_chunk() passes @errp to error_prepend()
without ERRP_GUARD(), and though its @errp parameter points to its
caller's local_err, to follow the requirement of @errp, add missing
ERRP_GUARD() at the beginning of this function.
