I used a coccinelle script:
  * ran it with `make coccicheck MODE=patch SPFLAGS="--in-place --debug" COCCI=script.cocci`
  * script:
    ```
    virtual patch

    @r1@
    identifier ctl_table_name;
    @@

    static struct ctl_table ctl_table_name[] = {
    ...
    -, {}
    };
    ```

and a gawk script
  * ran it with `for f in $(git grep -l "struct ctl_table") ; do script $f ; done`
  * script:
    ```
    #!/usr/bin/gawk -f

    BEGINFILE {
      RS=","
      has_struct = 0
    }

    /(static )?(const )?struct ctl_table/ {
      has_struct = 1
    }

    has_struct && /^(\n)?[\t ]*{(\n)*[\t ]*}/ {
      print "Filename : " FILENAME ", Record Number : " FNR
    }
    ```

At this point the coccinelle script gives me too many false positives
but the gawk is spot on. Thx for the sed one. Will make a note of it.

Best
