Return -EEXIST to signal that case so that callers can act accordingly. Enforce callers to check the return value, leading to loud screaming during build: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c: In function ‘mce_register_decode_chain’: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c:167:2: error: ignoring return value of \ ‘blocking_notifier_chain_register’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result] blocking_notifier_chain_register(&x86_mce_decoder_chain, nb); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Drop the WARN too, while at it.
