I believe that it is due to the following:

#define show(type, suffix, value)                                       \
static ssize_t show_##suffix(struct device *dev,                        \
                             struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)  \
{                                                                       \
        struct gl518_data *data = gl518_update_device(dev);             \
        return sprintf(buf, "%d\n", type##_FROM_REG(data->value));      \
}


Coccinelle doesn't understand the relationship between this macro and the
show functions.
