< and >= should bind tighter than &&.  But perhaps one could fine the
original code to be more readable.

This is not safe with respect to !.  The following seems to address this
problem:

@@
identifier i;
constant c;
expression e;
@@

(
!(e)
|
-(
\(i == c\|i <= c\|i < c\|i >= c\|i > c\)
-)
)

hmm
Perhaps you should use something like this?
@@
identifier i;
constant c;
@@

-(
\(i == c\|i <= c\|i < c\|i >= c\|i > c\)
-)

Initially I had the other cases too and used expression instead of
constant. But the results included only "==" and "<=" cases with
constant. Along with one false positive case.

--- a/drivers/crypto/cavium/zip/zip_main.c
+++ b/drivers/crypto/cavium/zip/zip_main.c
@@ -99,7 +99,7 @@ static struct zip_device *zip_alloc_devi
  */
 struct zip_device *zip_get_device(int node)
 {
-if ((node < MAX_ZIP_DEVICES) && (node >= 0))
+if (node < MAX_ZIP_DEVICES && node >= 0)
 return zip_dev[node];

 zip_err("ZIP device not found for node id %d\n", node);

I checked if there was any case of extra parentheses around relational
operators left, but there were none. Hence, in the script I included
only the cases present in the result.

Why just the "==" and "<=" cases?
Why not "<", ">" and ">=" too?

Why not expression instead of constant?
