99fcec30e8 Coccinelle: Script to detect cast after memory allocation
This script detects cases of use of cast for the value returned by
kmalloc, kzalloc, kcalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc,
kmem_cache_alloc_node, kmalloc_node and kzalloc_node and removes
the cast as it is not useful. This Coccinelle script replaces
drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci as it removes the casting in more limited
cases of kmalloc, kzalloc and kcalloc.

b5889ab7d4 coccinelle/null: solve parse error
This patch solves the parse-error by adding @@ . This is necessary since
Coccinelle version 1.0.0-rc20. Also, the comment is added to use a
recent version of Coccinelle.

c9d53c0f2d devres: remove devm_request_and_ioremap()
devm_request_and_ioremap() was obsoleted by the commit 7509657
("lib: devres: Introduce devm_ioremap_resource()") and has been
deprecated for a long time. So, let's remove this function.
In addition, all usages of devm_request_and_ioremap() are also
removed.

2d5c5dbb48 coccinelle: Check for missing NULL terminators in of_device_id tables
Failure to terminate an of_device_id table can lead to confusing
failures depending on where the compiler places the array. Add a
check to make sure these tables are terminated. Thanks to Mitchel
Humpherys for coming up with the pattern initially.

79f0345fef scripts: Coccinelle script for pm_runtime_* return checks with IS_ERR_VALUE
As indicated by Sekhar in [1], there seems to be a tendency to use
IS_ERR_VALUE to check the error result for pm_runtime_* functions which
make no sense considering commit c48cd65 (ARM: OMAP: use consistent
error checking) - the error values can either be < 0 for error OR
0, 1 in cases where we have success.

So, setup a coccinelle script to help identify the same.

75096579c3 lib: devres: Introduce devm_ioremap_resource()
The devm_request_and_ioremap() function is very useful and helps avoid a
whole lot of boilerplate. However, one issue that keeps popping up is
its lack of a specific error code to determine which of the steps that
it performs failed. Furthermore, while the function gives an example and
suggests what error code to return on failure, a wide variety of error
codes are used throughout the tree.

In an attempt to fix these problems, this patch adds a new function that
drivers can transition to. The devm_ioremap_resource() returns a pointer
to the remapped I/O memory on success or an ERR_PTR() encoded error code
on failure. Callers can check for failure using IS_ERR() and determine
its cause by extracting the error code using PTR_ERR().

devm_request_and_ioremap() is implemented as a wrapper around the new
API and return NULL on failure as before. This ensures that backwards
compatibility is maintained until all users have been converted to the
new API, at which point the old devm_request_and_ioremap() function
should be removed.

A semantic patch is included which can be used to convert from the old
devm_request_and_ioremap() API to the new devm_ioremap_resource() API.
Some non-trivial cases may require manual intervention, though.

a1087ef6ab scripts/coccinelle: update for compatability with Coccinelle 0.2.4
For doubleinit.cocci, Coccinelle 0.2.4 requires a comma after ... in a
field list.  Coccinelle also now behaves gracefully when a definition is
provided for a virtual that doesn't exist, so there is no need for the
semantic patch code to check for this case.

Updated the documentation to reflect the fact that the best results will
now be obtained with Coccinelle version 0.2.4 or later.

49ab7a3913 Coccinelle: Add misc/ifcol.cocci
Find confusingly indented code in or after an if.  An if branch should
be indented.  The code following an if should not be indented.
Sometimes, code after an if that is indented is actually intended to be
part of the if branch.

This has a high rate of false positives, because Coccinelle's column
calculation does not distinguish between spaces and tabs, so code that
is not visually aligned may be considered to be in the same column.
