But provably correct conversions IMO _should_ be done and IMO churn considerations should generally have less importance.

Moreover, the patch review workload for skilled humans is being generated by the automation, which is completely backwards: the machine is supposed to be helping.
Which is why the provably correct matters.
coccinelle transforms can be, but are not necessarily, provably correct.
The _show transforms done via the sysfs_emit_dev.cocci script are correct

for show(device *...) functions")
