This script for the semantic patch language was designed in the way that more source code would be adjusted (or just reformatted) than I see as an essential transformation for the replacement of function calls in the shown case.
Example: … ( - x = kmalloc(E1,E2); + x = kzalloc(E1,E2); | …
We are discussing consequences from the specification of a different change granularity for a while. I hope that another SmPL script variant could be integrated which will work with a higher precision then so that involved software developers can choose the preferred transformation approach also on their own.

How do you think about to start with numbering for subsequent SmPL scripts?
