I suggest to combine the desired adjustment with the previous SmPL rule
by using another disjunction.

How does the SmPL asterisk functionality fit to the operation
modes “org” and “report”?

Add GFP_USER to the allocation flags and handle vmemdup_user().
The third patch supresses memdup_user(), vmemdup_user() functions
detection. Last patch is a proof of concept for the rule selfchecking.
Gives the ability to detect that an open-coded pattern in a function
definition that we search for in the kernel sources changed.

  coccinelle: api: extend memdup_user rule with vmemdup_user()
  coccinelle: api: filter out memdup_user definitions
  coccinelle: api: add selfcheck for memdup_user rule
