Sure. I have changed regetuser-wang.cocci from Kees's RFC patches to
include everything in the pattern matching rule. I'll send that as well.

Do you mean that there is a problem when we have get_user() followed by
copy_from_user()? Basically something like
this:

get_user(..., src.arg) //where src.arg = field of a structure
...
copy_from_user(..., src, ...) //where src is a whole structure

If that is the case then we would need to have one more new script
or rule for such kind of combinational patterns. Disjunction can
probably give FPs.

Thanks!
