False positive not-an-iterable for first argument staticmethod in metaclass

[ifinik]

Steps to reproduce

Save the following into a file and run pylint over it:

class My(type):
    @staticmethod
    def test(args):
        """
        Non-iterable value args is used in an iterating contextpylint(not-an-iterable)
        """
        #         \|/
        for i in args:
            print(i)

Current behavior

A not-an-iterable error is being emitted for correct code:
a.py:4:17: E1133: Non-iterable value args is used in an iterating context (not-an-iterable)

Expected behavior

No error should be emitted

pylint --version output

pylint 2.3.1
astroid 2.2.5

Hey @ifinik Thanks for creating an issue. Please respect the template for new issues which indicates that it should have a reproduction example, the error you are seeing, the version of pylint you are using and so on. This time I went ahead and changed the issue for you.

@PCManticore , I apologize, thanks for the correction.
Is there somewhere an example of a template that can be referenced in such a case?
