+///Find conditions where if and else branch are functionally

+// There can be false positives in cases where the positional
+// information is used (as with lockdep) or where the identity
+// is a placeholder for not yet handled cases.
+// Unfortunately there also seems to be a tendency to use
+// the last if else/else as a "default behavior" - which some
+// might consider a legitimate coding pattern. From discussion
+// on kernelnewbies though it seems that this is not really an
+// accepted pattern and if at all it would need to be commented
+//
+// In the Linux kernel it does not seem to actually report
+// false positives except for those that were documented as
+// being intentional.
+// the two known cases are:
+// arch/sh/kernel/traps_64.c:read_opcode()
+// } else if ((pc & 1) == 0) {
+// /* SHcompact */
+// /* TODO : provide handling for this. We don't really support
+// user-mode SHcompact yet, and for a kernel fault, this would
+// have to come from a module built for SHcompact. */

+// } else {
+// /* misaligned */
