Subject: RE: [PATCH 3/5] drivers/infiniband: correct size computation

From: Julia Lawall <julia@...u.dk>

The size argument to ioremap_nocache should be the size of desired
information, not the pointer to it.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@expression@
expression *x;
@@

x =
 <+...
*sizeof(x)
...+>// </smpl>
