Subject[PATCH 2/3] fs/ceph/xattr.c: Use kasprintf
Date
Convert a sequence of kmalloc and memcpy to use kasprintf.  The argument is
checked for being a string by the presence of a previous call to strlen.

The semantic patch that performs this transformation is:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression a,flag,len;
expression arg,e1,e2;
statement S;
@@

len = strlen(arg)
... when != len = e1
when != arg = e2
a =
- \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(len+1,flag)
+ kasprintf(flag,"%s",arg)
<... when != a
if (a == NULL || ...) S
...>
- memcpy(a,arg,len+1);
// </smpl>
