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
