From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 29 Sep 2017 22:00:25 +0200 Replace the specification of data structures by pointer dereferences as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
