Local inspection invoked in file A, and error registered in file B. Is this possible?

Hi,

My plugin has a local inspection tool that can find some issues related to code in other files, and may register the issue on PsiElement in other files. However, I got the following error when I test it:

Reported element PsiArrayInitializerMemberValue:{Destination.UNKNOWN} is not from the file 'PsiJavaFile:SeparateLocationListener.java' the inspection 'LocationAPIInspection' (class org.intellij.privacyhelper.codeInspection.inspections.LocationAPIInspection) was invoked for. Message: 'PRIVACY: The field is unknown'.
Element' containing file: PsiJavaFile:SeparateLocationListener.java
Inspection invoked for file: PsiJavaFile:LocationTestActivity.java

It seems that this is because when the inspection is invoked for file "LocationTestActivity.java", it tries to register a new issue on an element in another file "SeparateLocationListener.java. I wonder whether there is a way to avoid this error?
