This obscure reference to the cocci path you used to find/fix
this problem is insufficient in detail for a commit log message.

You must explain exactly what the problem is, and how you fixed
it, in full sentences.   You must make your commit header lin
subject more appropriate as well.

Hello Thomas,

additionally to provide a proper log message it is a usual to provide the
coccinelle expression that found the source to be changed.

E.g. like these

Regards,
Oliver
