[PATCH 2/4] coccicheck: enable paramap support

From: Luis R. Rodriguez
Date: Fri Jun 10 2016 - 16:42:27 EST


Coccinelle has had paramap support since 1.0.2, this means
it supports --jobs, enabling built-in multithreaded functionality,
instead of needing one to script it out. Just look for --jobs
in the help output to determine if this is supported.

Also enable the load balancing to be dynamic, so that if a
thread finishes early we keep feeding it.

If --jobs is not supported we fallback to the old mechanism.

As a small example, prior to this change, on an 8-core system:

Before:

$ export COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/free/kfree.cocci
$ time make coccicheck MODE=report
...

real 29m14.912s
user 103m1.796s
sys 0m4.464s

After:

real 16m22.435s
user 128m30.060s
sys 0m2.712s
