The changes in the patch obviously look all correct.

I wonder how we can exploit Coccinelle to do this kind of
transformations, though.  Would it be possible to say

 * if we see "strchr(S, C1) || strchr(S, C2)", transform it to
   "strpbrk(S, concat(stringify(C1),stringify(C2)))"; and
 * if we see "strpbrk(S, N) || strchr(S, C)", transform it to
   "strpbrk(S, concat(N, stringify(C))";

and let the tool apply these two rules repeatedly, to catch the
pattern to find any number of needle character in the same haystack?
