Hello Julia,
Thank you for the update.
To be sure I understand what you are saying, the scoped_guard and
for_each_child_of_node_scoped are clean-up macros in the Linux kernel
code.

Then we'll be using Coccinelle semantic patches to look for cases in
kernel code where these clean up macros are appropriate to be used?

Lastly, would you like us to send the application as an inline email
to the mailing list for review?

Thank you.

Adekunle.
