coccinelle: update Coccinelle entry
coccinelle: semantic patch to check for inappropriate do_div() calls
do_div() does a 64-by-32 division.
When the divisor is unsigned long, u64, or s64,
do_div() truncates it to 32 bits, this means it
can test non-zero and be truncated to zero for division.
This semantic patch is inspired by Mateusz Guzik's patch:

Currently use_after_iter.cocci generates false positives for code of the
following form:
~~~
list_for_each_entry(d, &ddata->irq_list, node) {
if (irq == d->irq)
break;
}
if (list_entry_is_head(d, &ddata->irq_list, node))

~~~
[This specific example comes from drivers/power/supply/cpcap-battery.c]
Most list macros use list_entry_is_head() as loop exit condition meaning it
is not unsafe to reuse pos (a.k.a. d) in the code above.

The ptr_ret script script addresses a number of situations where we end up
testing an error pointer, and if it's an error returning it, or return 0
otherwise to transform it into a PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO call.
So it will convert a block like this:
if (IS_ERR(err))
return PTR_ERR(err);
return 0;
into
return PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(err);
While this is technically correct, it has a number of drawbacks. First, it
merges the error and success path, which will make it harder for a reviewer
or reader to grasp.
It's also more difficult to extend if we were to add some code between the
error check and the function return, making the author essentially revert
that patch before adding new lines, while it would have been a trivial
addition otherwise for the rewiever.
Therefore, since that script is only about cosmetic in the first place,
let's remove it since it's not worth it.

As said by Linus:
A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
Otherwise it's actively misleading.
In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
caller wants.
In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.
The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.
Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.
The renaming is done by using the command sequence:
git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'
followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

When running `make coccicheck` in report mode using the
add_namespace.cocci file, it will fail for files that contain
MODULE_LICENSE. Those match the replacement precondition, but spatch
errors out as virtual.ns is not set.
In order to fix that, add the virtual rule nsdeps and only do search and
replace if that rule has been explicitly requested.
In order to make spatch happy in report mode, we also need a dummy rule,
as otherwise it errors out with "No rules apply". Using a script:python
rule appears unrelated and odd, but this is the shortest I could come up
with.

authors are now required to import the namespaces they need.
Some of the main motivations of this feature include: allowing kernel

should only be limited to certain users (think: inter-module or
inter-driver symbols, debugging symbols, etc), as well as more easily
limiting the availability of namespaced symbols to other parts of the
kernel. With the module import requirement, it is also easier to spot
the misuse of exported symbols during patch review. Two new macros are
introduced: EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(). The API is
thoroughly documented in Documentation/kbuild/namespaces.rst.
- Some small code and kbuild cleanups here and there.

"The main bulk of this pull request introduces a new exported symbol
namespaces feature. The number of exported symbols is increasingly
growing with each release (we're at about 31k exports as of 5.3-rc7)

Namespacing exported symbols allows kernel developers to more

Here is the big driver core update for 5.4-rc1.
There was a bit of a churn in here, with a number of core and OF
platform patches being added to the tree, and then after much discussion
and review and a day-long in-person meeting, they were decided to be
reverted and a new set of patches is currently being reviewed on the
mailing list.
Other than that churn, there are two "persistent" branches in here that
other trees will be pulling in as well during the merge window. One
branch to add support for drivers to have the driver core automatically
add sysfs attribute files when a driver is bound to a device so that the
driver doesn't have to manually do it (and then clean it up, as it
always gets it wrong).
There's another branch in here for generic lookup helpers for the driver
core that lots of busses are starting to use. That's the majority of
the non-driver-core changes in this patch series.
There's also some on-going debugfs file creation cleanup that has been
slowly happening over the past few releases, with the goal to hopefully
get that done sometime next year.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while now with no reported
issues.

[ Note that the above-mentioned generic lookup helpers branch was
already brought in by the LED merge (commit 4feaab05dc) that had
shared it.
Also note that that common branch introduced an i2c bug due to a bad
conversion, which got fixed here. - Linus ]

A script that uses the '<module>.ns_deps' files generated by modpost to
automatically add the required symbol namespace dependencies to each
module.
Usage:
1) Move some symbols to a namespace with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() or define
DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE
2) Run 'make' (or 'make modules') and get warnings about modules not
importing that namespace.
3) Run 'make nsdeps' to automatically add required import statements
to said modules.
This makes it easer for subsystem maintainers to introduce and maintain
symbol namespaces into their codebase.

Add the missing GPLv2 SPDX license identifier.
It appears this single file was missing from 7f904d7e1f ("treewide:
Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 505"), which
addressed all other files in scripts/coccinelle. Hence I added
GPL-2.0-only consitently with the mentioned patch.
