From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
According to Documentation/CodingStyle - Chapter 14:
"The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following:
p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);
The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts readability and
introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer variable type is changed
but the corresponding sizeof that is passed to a memory allocator is not."
So do it as recommeded.
