No, just ignore the static checker false positive in this case.  The
intent of the code is clear that if it did have an error it should
return an error pointer.

Hi, Dan,

Function "virtio_gpu_get_vbuf" call "kmem_cache_zalloc (vgdev->vbufs, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL)" to allocate memory. Adding the " __GFP_NOFAIL”flag make sure it won't fail. And "virtio_gpu_get_vbuf" never
return an error code, so I think this is not a false positive.
