Was this issue found by an automatic static source code analysis of a tool
like "Smatch"?
https://blogs.oracle.com/linuxkernel/entry/smatch_static_analysis_tool_overview
http://smatch.sourceforge.net/


Would it be useful to detect similar update candidates by the reuse of scripts
for the semantic patch language?
How do you think about to get additional help and support from a software
like Coccinelle for such search patterns?

Markus
