Tools like coverity and maybe clang notice that we dereference uri_out, and then (later) test whether uri_out is NULL. Obviously one or the other must go.
Presuming that we will always pass a non-NULL uri_out arg to this function, I chose to mark that parameter as ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL. I removed the unnecessary test, too.
If anyone is concerned that a non-NULL (non-literal) value will be passed, I can also add an assertion.
The change you make below is correct. uri_out can never be NULL in the code we have today, so the additional check is useless. ACK -- Chris Lalancette
