Felix,

Why coverity? I feel like we could run something akin to LLVM's clang-tidy
+ scan-build; it's open source (transparent *and* we can improve it or add
UEFI quirks) and doesn't rely on a third-party service. I'm sure we could
figure something out for hosting the thing. Otherwise, looks good to me.

Thanks,
Pedro
