In each case, the print involves dereferencing a value that is NULL or is
near NULL.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
expression E,E1;
identifier f;
statement S1,S2,S3;
@@
if ((E == NULL && ...) || ...)
{
... when != if (...) S1 else S2
when != E = E1
* E->f
... when any
return ...;
}
else S3
// </smpl>
