[PATCH] coccinelle: Remove script that checks replacing 0/1 with false/true in functions returning bool

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

There is nothing wrong with current code that returns 0 or 1 for a
function returning bool. It is perfectly acceptable by the C standard.

To avoid churn of unwanted patches that are constantly sent to maintainers
who do not care about this change, remove the script that flags it as an
issue. This issue is not worth the burden on maintainers to accept
useless patches.
