Pointless waste of typing.

Even if NULL is not 0 (which the C standard does allow, after all), the
C standard still requires that the conversion of a pointer to boolean
context treats all non-NULL pointers as true, and a null pointer as
false, so you are not buying any robustness by adding an explicit
comparison to NULL.
