There are multiple issues with this:
- function is not a metavariable, coccinelle assumes that f is an
expression of type "function".
- f( ) is a function call not a function definition.
- coccinelle doesn't detects that "Chan" is a type.

@@
identifier f, d;
typedef Chan;
type T;

 T f(...,
-Chan
+struct chan
 *d, ...);
