Dan Carpenter report:
The patch f47e04eb96e0: "net/mlx5: E-switch, Allow setting share/max
tx rate limits of rate groups" from May 31, 2021, leads to the
following Smatch static checker warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/esw/qos.c:483 esw_qos_create_rate_group()
warn: passing zero to 'ERR_PTR'
If min rate normalization failed then error code may be overwritten to 0
if scheduling element destruction succeed. Ignore this value and always
return initial one.
Fixes: f47e04eb96e0 ("net/mlx5: E-switch, Allow setting share/max tx rate limits of rate groups")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
