Readers of course must be willing to learn, but whoever proposes to add a .cocci patch file should be able to explain what the rewrite rules in there are designed to do and why. It is pretty much the same deal as any other patches. I'll wait and prefer to hear from others, also on points that I did not even quote back in my message because I didn't have anything to add myself, before digging further on points I responded to. Thanks for starting this topic.
