What's our usual practice for out-of-date conversion coccinelle
scripts? That particular script was "we'll never need this again"
pretty much from the moment it was checked in, because we did
the conversion of all the targets in one go. But it's still
useful in some sense as a "this is an example of how to do
this kind of change with a coccinelle script"...
