You are right in the sense that I misinterpreted your change suggestion.

But I find it inappropriate to enclose the function call code by an optional
SmPL nest construct.

The suggested script variant seems to work finally.
Thanks for your information.

@replacement@
identifier action, var, work;
type T, X;
@@
 T work(...)
 {
 ... when any
 X* var;
 <...
 var = action(...,
              sizeof(
-                    X
+                    *var
                    ),
              ...
             )
 ...>
 }


Now I wonder why the SmPL construct ?<+... ...+>? does not produce the same
transformation result for the source file ?fs/pstore/ram.c?.
