Checking zdev->zbus for NULL in __zpci_event_availability() is superfluous as it can never be NULL at this point. While harmless this check causes smatch warnings because we later access zdev->zbus with only having checked zdev != NULL which is sufficient. The reason zdev->zbus can never be NULL is since with zdev != NULL given we know the zdev came from get_zdev_by_fid() and thus the zpci_list. Now on first glance at zpci_create_device() one may assume that there is a window where the zdev is in the list without a zdev, however this window can't overlap with __zpci_event_availability() as zpci_create_device() either runs on the same kthread as part of availability events, or during the initial CLP List PCI at which point the __zpci_event_availability() is not yet called as zPCI is not yet initialized.

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.
