Pull out assignment used as a function argument before the function call to
improve readability. Change was made by hand while the following coccinelle
script was used to pinpoint the issue:

@a@
identifier func;
expression list E;
position p;
@@

func@p(E);

@script:python b@
E << a.E;
func << a.func;
p << a.p;
arg_list;
@@
arg_list = []
for i in E:
    if (        '=' in i
        and not '"' in i
	and not '==' in i
	and not '!=' in i
	and not '<=' in i
	and not '>=' in i
       ):
       print "function: " + func + " has assignment at arg: " + i
       print "in file: " + p[0].file + " , line: " + p[0].line
       arg_list.append(i)
for j in arg_list:
    print j

This is definitely inventive :).  It's really nice that you thought of
combining pattern matching and python.  On the other hand, I think that it
could have been done easily with only pattern matching too.  In recent
versions of ocaml, there is a metavariable type

assignment operator a;

Then you can say eg x a e, for any kind of assignment of e to x.

No need to update the semantic patch for this case, though.

Does &audio_aim not fit on the same line?

Unfortunately, in the end, it looks like this may not be correct, because
the most_get_mbo call should only happen if channel->is_stream_running is
true.  To make the change, you would need to pull the condition out of the
argument list too.

This patch isn't doing what you think it is doing :(

You need to keep calling most_get_mbo() for this to work properly, look
up how wait_event_interruptible() works.

thanks,

Thanks for pointing this out. Looks like I'm going to drop this patch
because it is entirely wrong due to reasons both you and Greg stated.
