> Enhance the coccicheck script to filter *.cocci files based on the
> specified MODE (e.g., report, patch). This ensures that only compatible
> semantic patch files are executed, preventing errors such as:
>
> "virtual rule report not supported"
>
> This error occurs when a .cocci file does not define a 'virtual <MODE>'
> rule, yet is executed in that mode.
>
> For example:
>
> make coccicheck M=drivers/hwtracing/coresight/ MODE=report
>
> In this case, running "secs_to_jiffies.cocci" would trigger the error
> because it lacks support for 'report' mode. With this change, such files
> are skipped automatically, improving robustness and developer
> experience.
