It turns out there aren't that many of these in xen.

They're all wrong, because if the pointer was really NULL then it's
not handled correctly and would eventually lead to a runtime failure.
Normally Smatch is smart enough to know that the pointer isn't NULL so
it doesn't generate a warning but yesterday I introduced a bug in Smatch
by mistake. It's fixed now.
