Yeah, I noticed it mostly because it's the first one touched.

Meanwhile, I think it's still worthwhile to go through the patch even
it's from cocinelle since sometimes coccinelle might do something that
we (or only me?) didn't expect. E.g., afaik it cannot handle well with
over-80-chars lines, so we need to wrap them on our own (I got a patch
from the author though to fix this, but not yet tested). And also
since patches are going to be merged changes, it just feel unsafe if
we merge something without reading it. :)

Thanks,
