This semantic patch looks for variables that are initialized with a
constant, are never updated, and are only used as parameter of return.
Return the constant instead of using a variable.

Failure to terminate an of_device_id table can lead to confusing
failures depending on where the compiler places the array. Add a
check to make sure these tables are terminated. Thanks to Mitchel
Humpherys for coming up with the pattern initially.

The Coccinelle script scripts/coccinelle/misc/memcpy-assign.cocci look
for opportunities to replace a call to memcpy by a struct assignment.
This patch removes memcpy-assign.cocci as it is not clear that this
convention has an impact on the generated code.

There are error-prone memcpy() that can be replaced by struct
assignment that are type-safe and much easier to read. This semantic
patch looks for memcpy() that can be replaced by struct assignment.

This semantic patch looks for semicolons that can be removed without
changing the semantics of the code. The confidence is moderate
because there are some false positives on cases like:
b/drivers/mmc/host/cb710-mmc.c:589
break;
case MMC_POWER_UP:
default:
- /* ignore */;
}
There are 37 patches accepted reported by this semantic patch and
more than 300 fixes to be applied.

Since commit 1c6c69525b ("genirq: Reject bogus threaded irq requests") threaded
IRQs without a primary handler need to be requested with IRQF_ONESHOT, otherwise
the request will fail. This semantic patch will help to statically identify
(and fix) such cases.

This patch ensures that all semantic patches in the scripts/coccinelle
directory provide the report option. Report messages that include line
numbers now have the line number preceded by "line" for easier subsequent

For doubleinit.cocci, Coccinelle 0.2.4 requires a comma after ... in a
field list. Coccinelle also now behaves gracefully when a definition is
provided for a virtual that doesn't exist, so there is no need for the
semantic patch code to check for this case.
Updated the documentation to reflect the fact that the best results will
now be obtained with Coccinelle version 0.2.4 or later.

Find confusingly indented code in or after an if. An if branch should
be indented. The code following an if should not be indented.
Sometimes, code after an if that is indented is actually intended to be
part of the if branch.
This has a high rate of false positives, because Coccinelle's column
calculation does not distinguish between spaces and tabs, so code that
is not visually aligned may be considered to be in the same column.
