It looks like you can completely get rid of the variable qwTSFOffset as
well.

Actually, it seems that you didn't use the patch that Coccinelle gave you,
because that should have removed the assignment also.  By default
Coccinelle prints a patch on standard output.  You can redirect that into
a file, and if you like it, you can apply it to your code, using
patch -p1 < {file}.  Another option is the --in-place argument to spatch.
Then you would want to do git diff afterwards to see what Coccinelle did.
