Subject: [PATCH] scripts: coccinelle: allow list_entry_is_head() to use pos
Currently use_after_iter.cocci generates false positives for code of the
following form:
~~~
list_for_each_entry(d, &ddata->irq_list, node) {
if (irq == d->irq)
break;
}
if (list_entry_is_head(d, &ddata->irq_list, node))
return IRQ_NONE;
~~~
[This specific example comes from drivers/power/supply/cpcap-battery.c]
Most list macros use list_entry_is_head() as loop exit condition meaning it
is not unsafe to reuse pos (a.k.a. d) in the code above.
Let's avoid reporting these cases.
