I'm sorry, that was extremely careless of me. I used Coccinelle to find 
this, not Checkpatch.
Here is the Coccinelle script I used:

@@identifier i1, i2, f1, f2; type T; expression e1, e2; statement S1, S2;@@
(
- T i1 = f1(...);
|
- T i1 = e1;
)
... when != e2 = <+...i1...+>
     when != if (<+...i1...+>) S1 else S2
     when != f2(...,<+...i1...+>,...)
     when != i1->i2
     when != i2[<+...i1...+>]
     when != while(<+...i1...+>) S1
     when != for(...;<+...i1...+>;...) S1

Again, I'm sorry for the confusion; I don't know why it happened, but it 
won't happen again.
