Subject: [PATCH v2] coccinelle: misc: semantic patch to delete overly complex return code processing
From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@...6.fr>
This semantic patch simplifies cases where the effect of the processing of
a function call's return code is just to return the result of the function
directly. It may also delete a local return flag variable, if this is no
longer used.
This was proposed by Uwe Kleine-König.
