Sorry, but again, why do we change the kernel to _silence_ Coverity? We 
do not do this even for compilers.

I am asking, why do you call this a fix at all? What does it fixes?

And finally, Coverity has a "False positive" selection box to dismiss a 
warning for good. One needs not changing the code.
