Date: Sat, 19 Aug 2017 13:48:55 +0200 From: SF Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net> To: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org, Andreas Dilger <adilger.kernel@...ger.ca>, Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu> Cc: LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, kernel-janitors@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: Improve a size determination in two functions From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net> Date: Sat, 19 Aug 2017 13:14:26 +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.
