i2c: Improve size determinations
[ Upstream commit 06e989578232da33a7fe96b04191b862af8b2cec ]
Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
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.
