Hi,

Yes, I found out/remembered after I submitted above patch... I used to
run most of the cocci spatches (some just run too long) after each rc1 release, but lost interest/time. nobody seems to
do this regularly, at least for existing spatches.

Which makes me wonder why cocci didn't found above places...
Also cocci includes linux/kernel.h if not already present.

I will give above regex a try for the whole kernel tree and check for
false positives.
