    netfilter: SNMP NAT: correct the size argument to kzalloc
    
    obj has type struct snmp_object **, not struct snmp_object *.  But indeed
    it is not even clear why kmalloc is needed.  The memory is freed by the end
    of the function, so the local variable of pointer type should be sufficient.
    
    The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
    (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
    
    // <smpl>
    @disable sizeof_type_expr@
    type T;
    T **x;
    @@
    
      x =
      <+...sizeof(
    - T
    + *x
      )...+>
    // </smpl>
