I actually meant splitting the by-hand stuff by subsystem, but nearly
all of these can be done mechanically too, so it shouldn't be bad. Notes
below...

These are more fun, but Coccinelle can still do them with a little

This can also be done mechanically:

Okay, that one is too much for me -- checking that group is never used
after the assignment removal is likely possible, but beyond my cocci
know-how. :)

Much less easy mechanically. :)

This looks wrong. Cocci says:
- int rs = (get_random_int() % 2 + 1) * 16;
+ int rs = (prandom_u32_max(2) + 1) * 16;

This looks wrong. Cocci says:

Yup, agrees with Cocci on these.
