Sang-Heon Jeon <ekffu200098@gmail.com> has cleaned up a number
 of the semantic patches in the scripts/coccinelle directory,
 particularly with respect to functions that no longer exist in
 the kernel.  He and I have also done some reorganizations that
 improve performance.
 
 I eliminatd some false positives.
