I think it would be good to repeat the description of the four modes
here (the 0/4 mail won't appear in the changelog).

Please sort the output of 'find' or use a shell glob instead. IMO the
order of tests should be stable (and thus easily diff-able) and not
change when you e.g. switch branches.

/home/mmarek/linux-2.6/scripts/coccinelle.sh: line 13: OPT: command not
found

Please remove the parentheses around OPT.

If 'spatch' is not available, you should exit with an error.

Thanks,

PS: Sorry for the delay, I didn't get around to to reviewing the v2 of
your patch early enough and then I was offline for two weeks.
