But fixing them is not so easy...

Sorry for being destructive, but we do not have easy coding tasks 
for newbies.

If it's easy it's already fixed, and dozens of people following your 
advice to look at e.g. compile or sparse warnings will only generate 
much noise, but they'll have a hard time finding anything they are 
capable to fix.
