I resonate with Elijah's "I know nothing about Coccinelle" statement in v1 of this patch more than I am willing to admit ;-).

I am glad that Coccinelle has some better tools for us to more easily express these macros. The end-result is very nice and has a clear interpretation.

Thanks for cleaning these up.

Thanks, Taylor
