It needs some additional effort for this series.. But it's possible. Still,
I think that we at least should not pull out patches which should be in
future series (for example from ppc or block/)..

Grepping through v5:
 for x in {warn_report_errp,error_report_errp,error_free_errp}; do echo == $x 
==; git grep -l $x | grep -v coccinelle | grep -v 'error\.h'; echo; done
== warn_report_errp ==

hw/ppc/spapr.c
hw/ppc/spapr_caps.c
hw/ppc/spapr_irq.c
hw/vfio/pci.c
net/tap.c
qom/object.c

== error_report_errp ==
hw/block/vhost-user-blk.c
util/oslib-posix.c

== error_free_errp ==

block/qapi.c

What do you want to add?

But coccinelle script would be wrong, if we drop this part from it. I think,
that after commit which adds coccinelle script, it should work with any file,
not only subset of these series.

So, it's probably OK for now to drop these functions, forcing their addition if
coccinelle script will be applied where these functions are needed. We can, for
example comment these three functions.

Splitting coccinelle script into two parts, which will be in different series 
will
not help any patch-porting processes.

Moreover, this will create dependencies between future series updating other 
files.

So, I don't like [2.]..

OK for me)

----------------

same grep with maintainers:
 for x in {warn_report_errp,error_report_errp,error_free_errp}; do echo == $x 
==; git grep -l $x | grep -v coccinelle | grep -v 'error\.h' | while read f; do 
echo $f; ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f --no-rolestats $f | grep -v 
'qemu-block\|qemu-devel' | sed -e 's/^/   /'; done; echo; done
== warn_report_errp ==
