From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2017 14:54:11 +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. * The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following. ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition Thus fix two affected source code places.
