[RFH] disable bogus .maybe_tree suggestion by Coccinelle?

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Josh at $WORK noticed that "make coccicheck" shows tons of false
positives to tell us to avoid direct access to the .maybe_tree
member of a commit object, even for those that are meant to be
excluded from the rewrite rule, like this:

        diff -u -p a/commit-graph.c b/commit-graph.c
        --- a/commit-graph.c
        +++ b/commit-graph.c
        @@ -905,7 +905,7 @@ static void fill_commit_graph_info(struc

         static inline void set_commit_tree(struct commit *c, struct tree *t)
         {
        -	c->maybe_tree = t;
        +	repo_get_commit_tree(specify_the_right_repo_here, c) = t;
         }

         static int fill_commit_in_graph(struct repository *r,

It turns out that "make coccicheck" shows the same undesirable
suggestions, even in a checkout of 301b8c7f (commit.c: add
repo_get_commit_tree(), 2019-04-16) that added these rules.

If nobody has a better idea (which would obviously to "fix" it so
that we still are reminded to think twice before directly accessing
the .maybe_tree member without these false positives), I'd propose
to remove these rules.

The box I observed the sympotom had this

    $ spatch --version
    spatch version 1.1.1 compiled with OCaml version 4.14.1
    Flags passed to the configure script: --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib --enable-ocaml --enable-python --with-python=python3 --enable-opt
