Removing static analysis error:- (error) Possible null pointer dereference: hba hba->cid_que.conn_cid_tbl[iscsi_cid] = bnx2i_conn; ^^^^ Validation of hba is not required in if check, because validation is done before entrying to this function and error comes because after this check hba is dereferenced without validation.
