In each case, ap is checked not to be NULL a few lines before.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
expression E;

if (x@p1 == NULL || ...) { ... when forall

// another path to the test that is not through p1?
