Sure, I'll paste the script directly in the commit message next time.

No problem, resolving this conflict was pretty easy.

Honestly, I don't know how to do that with a coccinelle script, and it
will probably take me more time to find how to do it than addressing
those problems manually.
Julia, could you give us some hint?

Yes, I noticed all those problems too, but as I said, I don't know how
to handle them using a coccinelle script.
