Indeed.  The normal pattern for btree_find seems to be:

        obj = btree_find(tree, key, &key_ptr);
        if (!obj)
                return;

which makes this fine.

The code in pf_batch_read effectively boils down to that due to
the 

        while (bplist[num] && num < MAX_BUFS && fsbno < max_fsbno) {

loop which stops executing the first conditional that evaluated to
false.  So I can't see how this actually ever had an affect, but I'm
fine with fixing the warnings.

Btw, did I mention that the while loop over the bplist is completely
non-intuitive?
