Shiny.. however:

$ make coccicheck COCCI=kref.cocci MODE=patch V=1
/bin/bash ./scripts/coccicheck

Please check for false positives in the output before submitting a patch.
When using "patch" mode, carefully review the patch before submitting it.

Processing kref.cocci
with option(s) ""

Message example to submit a patch:
 The semantic patch that makes this change is available
 in kref.cocci.

 More information about semantic patching is available at
 http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/
