Add a new Coccinelle script to identify places where PTR_ERR() is used
in print functions and suggest using the %pe format specifier instead.
For printing error pointers (i.e., a pointer for which IS_ERR() is true)
%pe will print a symbolic error name (e.g,. -EINVAL), opposed to the raw
errno (e.g,. -22) produced by PTR_ERR().
It also makes the code cleaner by saving a redundant call to PTR_ERR().
The script supports context, report, and org modes.
Example transformation:
printk("Error: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(ptr)); // Before
printk("Error: %pe\n", ptr); // After

Since commit cdd30ebb1b ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string
literal"), when MODULE_IMPORT_NS() is missing, 'make nsdeps' inserts
pointless code:
MODULE_IMPORT_NS("ns");
Here, "ns" is not a namespace, but the variable in the semantic patch.
It must not be quoted. Instead, a string literal must be passed to
Coccinelle.

include/linux/overflow.h includes helper macros intended for calculating
sizes of allocations. These macros prevent accidental overflow by
saturating at SIZE_MAX.
In general when calculating such sizes use of the macros is preferred. Add
a semantic patch which can detect code patterns which can be replaced by
struct_size.
Note that I set the confidence to medium because this patch doesn't make an
attempt to ensure that the relevant array is actually a flexible array. The
struct_size macro does specifically require a flexible array. In many cases
the detected code could be refactored to a flexible array, but this is not
always possible (such as if there are multiple over-allocations).

The test of an expression's address does not necessarily represent the
whole condition, it may only be a part of it. Also, an expression's
address is likely to be non-zero in every test expression, not only in
if statements.
This change aims at detecting an address test in more complex conditions
and not only in if statements.

There is a standard idiom for "if 'ret' holds an error, return it":
return ret < 0 ? ret : 0;
Developers prefer to keep the things as they are because stylistic
change to "return min(ret, 0);" breaks readability.
Let's suppress automatic generation for this type of patches.

The IRQF_ONESHOT should be present for threaded IRQ using default
primary handler. However intetrupt of many child devices, e.g. children
of MFD, is nested thus the IRQF_ONESHOT is not needed. The coccinelle
message about error misleads submitters and reviewers about the severity
of the issue, so make it a warning and mention possible false positive.

Skip patches generation for structs with a single field.
Changing a zero-length array to a flexible array member in a struct
with no named members breaks the compilation. However, reporting
such cases is still valuable, e.g. commit 637464c59e
("ACPI: NFIT: Fix flexible_array.cocci warnings").

One-element and zero-length arrays are deprecated [1]. Kernel
code should always use "flexible array members" instead, except
for existing uapi definitions.
The script warns about one-element and zero-length arrays in structs.
