Hello Yash Shah,
The patch 91abaeaaff35: "EDAC/sifive: Add EDAC platform driver for
SiFive SoCs" from May 6, 2019, leads to the following static checker
warning:
drivers/edac/sifive_edac.c:60 ecc_register()
warn: 'p->dci' can also be NULL
drivers/edac/sifive_edac.c
43 static int ecc_register(struct platform_device *pdev)
44 {
45 struct sifive_edac_priv *p;
46
47 p = devm_kzalloc(&pdev->dev, sizeof(*p), GFP_KERNEL);
48 if (!p)
49 return -ENOMEM;
50
51 p->notifier.notifier_call = ecc_err_event;
52 platform_set_drvdata(pdev, p);
53
54 p->dci = edac_device_alloc_ctl_info(0, "sifive_ecc", 1, "sifive_ecc",
55 1, 1, NULL, 0,
56 edac_device_alloc_index());
57 if (IS_ERR(p->dci))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The edac_device_alloc_ctl_info() function never returns error pointers,
it returns NULL.
58 return PTR_ERR(p->dci);
59
60 p->dci->dev = &pdev->dev;
61 p->dci->mod_name = "Sifive ECC Manager";
62 p->dci->ctl_name = dev_name(&pdev->dev);
63 p->dci->dev_name = dev_name(&pdev->dev);
64
regards,
dan carpenter

Thanks for reporting this bug. Currently, a discussion is going on to
move this code into some other directory. The patch for the same has
been submitted [0].
I will take care of this bug once that patch is accepted.
