Potentially returning success was intentional? This is from static
analysis and I can't be totally sure.

Returning -EEXIST here looks good to me, but could you remove the above pr_info
as well? I mean the following change is needed.
- pr_info("node%d already exists\n", nid)
+ ret = -EEXIST;
We don't need the above pr_info here because we delegate a warning message to
its caller wi_node_notifier().
This can close another warning report below.
