When I ran it, it was pointing out cases where you have:
if (foo->bar != NULL)
when you can just use:
if (foo->bar)

Well, you need to make that part of the code depend on CONFIG_SPL as SPL
support requires <asm/spl.h> to exist.   Perhaps part of the code needs
to be refactored to more easily deal with SPL not always being present?
