Do you find the following SmPL change specification more appropriate?

@deletion depends on patch@
expression e;
statement s;
@@
 e = devm_ioremap_resource(...);
 if (IS_ERR(e))
(
-{
-   dev_err(...);
    s
-}
|
 {
 <+...
-   dev_err(...);
 ...+>
 }
)


Will any additional constraints become relevant?

I guess that the application of SmPL disjunctions for if statements
can trigger development concerns.
