The error reported below is not possible in real life because
"requestor != NULL" means that "qp != NULL" too. However smatch
can't know it without extra help.

     drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/odp.c:1254 mlx5_ib_mr_wqe_pfault_handler()
     error: we previously assumed 'qp' could be null (see line 1230)

This kind of change makes the code confusing to human readers. Have you considered to add a BUG_ON(!qp) or WARN_ON(!qp) with a comment that refers to sparse instead?

Thanks,
