Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] Coccinelle: atomic_as_refcounter: Omit placeholder
 specifications from a SmPL constraint

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2018 17:34:56 +0200

A string was enclosed by placeholder specifications for
regular expressions as constraints for metavariables in a script
for the semantic patch language.
The desired search functionality can be achieved also without
the notation “.*”. Thus delete it at a specific place.
