Ugh...

Ok.  I have a script that I use to help review mechanical patches.  I
have added an '-r cast' option to help review "remove unnecessary cast"
patches.

If you do `cat this_email.txt | rename_rev.pl -r cast` then the output
looks like:

================
 static void devm_mmc_host_release(struct device *dev, void *res)
 {
-       mmc_free_host(*res);
+       mmc_free_host(res);
 }
 
 struct mmc_host *devm_mmc_alloc_host(struct device *dev, int extra)
================

I have gone through all of Yu Zhe's patches and the rest are okay.

I've attached my rename_rev.pl script.

regards,
dan carpenter
