There's a long prev_state in sched/core.c::finish_task_switch() for instance. I suppose that's where coccinelle oughta help but I'm really not fluent in that. Is there a way to make it match p.state accesses with p task_struct? And if so, can we make it change the type of the variable being read from / written to? How did you come up with this changeset, did you pickaxe for some regexp? [...]
