[PATCH] cxl/region: Guard against a missing peer mapping

When two endpoints share a dport, both must be mapped by the port.

sashiko-bot reports that a missing peer mapping could result in a NULL
pointer dereference during region creation.

No caller can reach this today. Guard it anyway so a future violation
of the mapping requirement fails region creation rather than causing
an oops.
