Sorry, I should have mentioned which warnings you should fix ...

You find this rule all over the source code in U-Boot...

Yes, this is fine.

Just applied your patches now, there is one warning in patch

"test: dm: rtc: add test of dm_rtc_read, dm_rtc_write"

CHECK: Comparison to NULL could be written "emul"
#218: FILE: test/dm/rtc.c:162:
+       ut_assert(emul != NULL);

I think, this should be fixed! But looking into the source file, there
are more such lines, so I let this at it is... may this should be cleaned!

Thanks for your work!

bye,
Heiko
