[PATCH] coccinelle: Check for missing NULL terminators in of_device_id tables

From: Stephen Boyd
Date: Fri May 23 2014 - 19:42:06 EST


Failure to terminate an of_device_id table can lead to confusing
failures depending on where the compiler places the array. Add a
check to make sure these tables are terminated. Thanks to Mitchel
Humpherys for coming up with the initial pattern.
