Given the unfolded *&, I wonder if the above actually shouldn't be
a loop with indirection integral counter instead of a boolean
and simply bump the indirection count on INDIRECT_REF_P and decrease on
ADDR_EXPR, and if indirection count is > 0 after the loop return NULL_TREE?
Say for *&*& or similar, and ***var.field always not warning etc.

Otherwise the patch looks good.

Though you might throw in a few test lines with the intermixed casts and
compound exprs multiple times (why you've added correctly the loop in
there).
