Hello Christophe Lombard,

The patch 14baf4d9c739: "cxl: Add guest-specific code" from Mar 4,
2016, leads to the following static checker warning:

	drivers/misc/cxl/guest.c:1115 cxl_guest_init_adapter()
	error: we previously assumed 'adapter->guest' could be null (see line 1114)

drivers/misc/cxl/guest.c
  1105  struct cxl *cxl_guest_init_adapter(struct device_node *np, struct platform_device *pdev)
  1106  {
  1107          struct cxl *adapter;
  1108          bool free = true;
  1109          int rc;
  1110  
  1111          if (!(adapter = cxl_alloc_adapter()))
  1112                  return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
  1113  
  1114          if (!(adapter->guest = kzalloc(sizeof(struct cxl_guest), GFP_KERNEL))) {
  1115                  free_adapter(adapter);
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We can't call free_adapter() if adapter->guest is NULL.

  1116                  return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
  1117          }


	drivers/misc/cxl/guest.c:919 afu_properties_look_ok()
	warn: unsigned 'afu->crs_len' is never less than zero.

drivers/misc/cxl/guest.c
   907  static int afu_properties_look_ok(struct cxl_afu *afu)
   908  {
   909          if (afu->pp_irqs < 0) {
   910                  dev_err(&afu->dev, "Unexpected per-process minimum interrupt value\n");
   911                  return -EINVAL;
   912          }
   913  
   914          if (afu->max_procs_virtualised < 1) {
   915                  dev_err(&afu->dev, "Unexpected max number of processes virtualised value\n");
   916                  return -EINVAL;
   917          }
   918  
   919          if (afu->crs_len < 0) {
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Remove this test.  Unsigned is never less than zero.

   920                  dev_err(&afu->dev, "Unexpected configuration record size value\n");
   921                  return -EINVAL;
   922          }
   923  
   924          return 0;
   925  }
