Hi Julia,

I've looked quickly at your output, and can't see what could/should be 
done in the spotted cases.
   e100.c: a comment says that 'If it's NULL, then no ucode is 
required', so, the behavior looks ok to me
   chcr_algo.c: function 'create_wr_fn' is passed as a parameter. I've 
no way to make sure of its behavior, so the code could be valid. I won't 
touch it.
   acl.c:  by code inspection, the way the code is written looks valid 
to me. We have NULL if the a call in 'ocfs2_get_acl_nolock' returns 
-ENODATA. Not that strange to return success in this case

So, personally, I won't propose anything on these files. Up to anyone to 
dig further than me.
