Do you think you can do the review?

Hi Andi, I can review the bug sure. Is there a specific reason to remove Coverity support for NSS?
I didn't get notified by anyone prior to this and NSS needs more static analysis, not less... :/ B.

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately we are no longer paying for the coverity license because the results that we’ve had on gecko during the years were sub optimal but we will soon replace it with an open source tool based on clang tolling.

Oops, I closed it as a reflex as if it was in NSS, sorry about that... : )
