Subject: [PATCH -next] dma: mv_xor: fix invalid use of sizeof in orion_ge00_switch_init()

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@...wei.com>

sizeof() when applied to a pointer typed expression gives the
size of the pointer, not that of the pointed data.

Fixes: fe158a17c1e0 ("ARM: orion: simplify orion_ge00_switch_init")
