From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2017 21:23:43 +0100 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.
